See ing that our wonderful French boat ahs made it through several storms
with wave heights of 15' and winds gusting over 35, I don't think you'd have
much to fear. And seeing as how in those conditions, I'm the one who crawls
the deck because I'm nimble and quick would make it even safer for you.
Why, we'd even let you stay down in the quarter berth with Choppie....he'd
like some company since we don't allow him above when we're to
weather...You'd have to promise to take a bucket in there with you,
though...I refuse to clean up after pukers...

I'd have to bring my own boat. Sailing in a storm on an inferior
French boat would frighten me to death . . .

I've sailed on the Gulf...Thought it was quite boring....you could set
your sails and then not have to do anything else...just sit there...I
prefer the wild and wooly sailing on Lake Michigan, thank you very
much.
Fall sailing in Michigan is the best. You get a good breeze of around
15
knots and 2-4 footers...weather is just cool enough that you don't have
to
grease yourself down with sunscreen...it's invigorating and refreshing
instead of hot and sticky...You travel up here and go sailing with
us...we'll take you out in a storm...


Don't encourage him, Katy. I'd hate to see you and Mr. Sails fall
overboard
with raucous laughter when the good Captain's eyes assume the size of
tennis
balls and his lower jaw hits the deck upon his first experience with an
8-10' closely-spaced Lake M. chop. At the very least he should be polite
enough to bring his own harness and lanyard, plus a remedy for
mal-de-mer.
