Love you but till then you are crew.



Exactly
I started sailing and racing cats with my now wife (gf back then in Mexico) and before , in the middle and at the end of each race I remarked her that all my rants, were on my own frustration and that she didn´t have to take it personally.
Something like above "We are just racing, you are a crew"

No wonder the Mex fleet said to me that she valued her weight in gold for continue racing! haa but we had the best time together, specially at the 2004 H16 Worlds.

We trained at Valle de Bravo Lake and the first race in Playa del Carmen was held in +20knots and huge waves... it was tough, with 1 year of sailing only. No wonder I married her later!

Back in Arg with the F18 launched , we didn´t race again. Maybe with an F16 in the future?
