Been sailing since 1983 ... Jane since 1963 ... I teach navigation and
various Power Squadron Courses. We are both CYA Race Management
Certified and I am a blue level judge. I am also a Professional
Engineer and enjoy the math ... We have been sailing in the Great Lakes
for over 20 years in a variety of boats. My simple question involved
heaving-to in a ketch. I don't mind wind ... it doesn't break stuff ...
I don't like waves ... it can sink you ...
