Are We Ever Scared?
 
The first time I got nailed by a T-Storm it was on my Catalina 27 and
I'm willing to admit that I felt more than a trickle of concern as the
boat headed for a mooring field with little control from the helm. Not
long after I learned how to handle such "little" storms and get through
them with little more than clean decks.

So....if you're not too proud, let's hear about a moment under sail
where you felt that tinge of fear or real concern!

One time, at night, Lisa took the wheel so I could take a
short nap below. I had the scariest nightmare, dreamt I was
a big fat blowhard from NYC named Bobspit. I woke up
screaming and sweating like crazy! .
Now *that* was scary!!
