Posts: 217 | There used to be 2 active Freestyles on Lake Travis, in the early 90s. Both were unirig, no trapeze. If they had had better sails they would have *killed* all the other boats on handicap (78.3) . They were very light, narrow entry, round exit hull shape, with NACRA-like boards.

Posts: 851 US Western Continental Shelf | I love the way that the spinnaker shadow in this image creates an illusion that the sailor is flying along on a trimaran! That is art! Don't see it? Try blocking out all of the image that is above the decks. Just look at the hulls and below. See three bows?? What a gorgeous photo! GARY

From what I've seen most fleet at least have a group to communicate in. Facebook isn't to bad when you subscribe to enough sailing content that it drowns our the everyday nonsense of our friends, which sometimes isn't too bad when a majority of your friends are sailors.

Hey Mr. Broger, I just flew over MSP on my way to Narita yesterday (I'm in Narita as I type this) and the ground was covered with all this white stuff, what the heck is that?
