Last night I stopped by at MATC to participate in making a spinnaker. I didn't think I had much to offer other than a pair of free hands but not before long, I was running parts of the sail through the sawing machine!!
The best part about this experience was that I met a bunch of new sailors and got to work with some instructors from the sailing club. On land, we were on equal footing and it felt good! At one point, I even got an honorary tech plus rating from one of them. Too bad it doesn't count on the water. I could have sewed all night to becoming a fleet captain :o)It's amazing what a pair of free hands can do!
