If you are 6-foot-1, how did you get into an Optimist Dinghy, much less sail it? And there was another guy the same size? That must have been hilarious to watch. Every year we have a race at Put-in-Bay Yacht Club on "Men's Day" where men (now both men and women) get into Optimist dinghies and have a series of elimination races around the harbor. The most difficult, and entertaing part, is usually getting the people into the dinghies without capsizing them.
