The comments in the other threads about the physical demands of
sailing are apt. Other than Larry (who apparently keeps his 250 lb
frame trim by hauling beer and chasing his bikini-clad crew), what do
the rest of you do to prepare yourself physically for sailing?

Wow - getting in shape for sailing: what a concept! Apart from racing in
dinghies, my biggest exertion on a sailing trip is getting all my Lady's
"stuff" on board (that, and hauling up the 35-lb CQR and 30ft of chain
from 60ft down...). But seriously: I pretty much just set the sails and go.
