No, that's not what a sailor does. You get out there, hoist the sails
and practice light air with whatever comes.

I can understand why, with the conditions you generally experience in that
end of the Sound at this time of year, you need to make a virtue of
necessity. Hell, I used to do the same thing when I had a boat there. But
most of us sail to enjoy sailing rather than sitting in a bathtub, and
have
no need to prove anything by sitting around with the limp sails flapping.

Ya know, I seriously doubt if bubbles actually practices what he preaches,
and it isn't like he races.
