Default moment of zen

Ah... they are fantastic when they happen... I was sailing on my boat,
tacking up Raccoon Straight last year, and fell into the zen zone. It lasted
through the five or so tacks, with me sitting on the low side, some
customers sitting on the high side enjoying the ride and keeping watch for
me. My hand was in the water or close on each tack. The boat was perfectly
balanced and the people were mostly quiet with an occasional, "there's a
boat." Probably the "moment" lasted 20 minutes, but the feeling kept with
all of us the rest of the day.
