sheesh Scout....Let me explain this very carefully for you....most women
do better learning to sail from someone they are not emotionally involved
with...you know, the old control issue thing...Does your wife want to swap
you when you sail together?

Nonsense...... it's not a control issue in a proper relationship. It's a
security issue resulting from a sailor's lack of confidence in themselves.
I've seen wives screaming at their husbands during what was a routine tactic
or procedure as well as men yelling at their wives. It comes down to
trust... like all relationships.

The cure for this is Rum in generous quantities while underway...... :-)
