I have decided its about time i learn to sail

I'm so bloody lucky, my dad owns a 42 foot yacht which he has been giving me lessons on. My mothers partner does volunteer work at a yacht club so he is offering to teach me some stuff for free in the dingys. I think they are pacers.

I grew up around sail boats, my father has always been an avid sailor and really pushed learning to sail onto us as kids, we were sent to sailing school etc etc. I was never that keen but something has just clicked in me and I am so keen to learn right now!!!!!! My dad is such a good sailor that he has taught olympic sailing...yeah I'm sooo bloody lucky and spoilt. He called me yesterday morning to see if i wanted to go sailing and i jumped at the chance. You can tell he is so stoked that his daughter is finally showing some interest.

I love my dad, its good to also spend time with him out there on the bay.

He loves to get some speed up and burn off other boats, pretty funny really :) he is so competitive!
