Fall Mountain
Lake Sailing
You should not dismiss the
value of learning/practicing sailing in small lakes -
especially mountain lakes - as a way to improve your boat
handling skills. Because of the smaller area, you find you
have to maneuver more often, i.e. shorter distances between
tacks, jibes etc. The local topography affects the wind
strength and direction, very often quite suddenly which will
tend to keep you on your toes. In other words you become
sharper and more responsive. The skills learned on a lake
transfer very well to the ocean. 4 Sa & Su,
