Wind July 1st, 2001

This was the most wind that I have ever sailed in.  My boat lasted
about 20 minutes before the mast snapped.  It was a long swim to
shore. Thanks to the people that rescued Trevor and I.  Not sure
if Trevor will ever get into a sail boat again.  

TIP: If you ever break a part of your boat check you house
insurance.  I was surprised to find out that my boat was covered.
