It's what lured you to this special newsgroup, Isn't it.



Sometimes I wonder. I was actually interested in getting back to doing
some sailing, and I have this outing coming up next weekend.

Speaking of which, I know about layering. Do I need to wear something
special as far as footware goes? I know not to wear something that'll
scuff the deck, but should I go buy some boots or would tennis shoes do?

If you plan on sailing frequently, I'd pick up a pair of boating shoes.
the non-slip soles and the non-marking feature make them worthwhile.
You probably don't need the $200. version some here like.....

I'm sure you can do better price wise down there.


I found some one the west marine website. I'm thinking about it, but I don't
sail that often. Looks like they have some for about $50, but they don't
have laces? That's odd.
