“A good skipper is an alert skipper” — I still remembered those words from my Auckland run. This is my online notebook about the boating world.
There’ll be both a fun run-through of all runs I did (so some posts will be backdated), and a look at how I see things in the boating community.
What’s the vibe my end? Helm experience since age 16 on Lake Zürich with a marked Antipodean tint — runs in Auckland and Taupō, a mandatory Vegemite ritual pre-launch, the right mix of “she’ll be all right” and Swiss precision when making way, permanent Lauterbach-level risk assessment and mitigation combined with a desire to crack a few hearty jokes, and to pilot the hull just so smooth like a good HSR train where Jr can feel free to have fun with dominoes even on the water…
Yeah mate, she’ll be all right… now let’s give that diver to the left and sailboat to the right a fair bit of extra space… make it nice and easy for all on the water…
