Sometimes you just have to take a break from something to realize how much you like it and how much it is a part
of your life. "How can you miss me if I don't go away"
Our equipment mothballs very well, there are no batteries that need to be maintained, no software that needs upgrading, no fuel to go
stale. Pack with care and store in a cool dry place and you're good to go at some point in the future.
For newbies, this can be a very frustrating sport until you get that first magical day when it all comes together for an epic ride and you realize
what all the talk is about. Then you become the true addict looking for your personal best experience.
I'm 65 and have been a sailor since I was 10. The interaction with wind and weather is so varied and profound that I never get bored. There are times when I take a break ( we call it summer ) and change over to R/C airplanes for the season. The ability to take a couple of pounds of
ripstop, toss it in the air and manipulate it to provide the power to haul me across the Earth's surface provides endless enjoyment.

I'm hoping to breaththe life of this wonderful sport into my sons lungs!! So he may enjoy it as I have and excel more than I am able!! if he'd like too!
