I thought this post was in Spanish at first but I can usually read Spanish a little bit. I realized this is in Portuguese!

I used to visit my Dad in Florida every summer and we lived right across the street from the Gulf. We used to swim there all the time and it must be fun to sail there.

That's definitely an adventure and very cool. Just north of Ashland, I see. My favorite sailing is on Big Portage Lake in Land O Lakes, there on the border with the UP. Of course, when a squall comes up, I can usually make it home in time :):):)

Where were you towing to on Superior? Great photo....

Well, despite my mishap, that was a fun day. What a beautiful day on Tomales!

Yup, the whole embarrasing footage...

And much more fun when I transferred to your Laser. Hanging out on the deck while you sailed us back was really cool and funny too, LOL... Post the vid Andy, and I hope people will laugh with me and not at me. Or both ...

Andyatos towed me back to the launch in his Laser when I broke my rudder cheek. That was the first time we sailed and he was still willing to sail with me. Truly a great guy!

Hey Andy Sonfishsky, thanks for the history and a true, morning LOL! I have been sick for the last week, too. I forgot if we discussed this, but do you also have a new Intensity practice race sail? It looks like it in your photos and I seem to recall that you did (maybe). Mine in Wisconsin gave...

My 2018 was made in China and has the traditional foam blocks inside. You can see them if you take the drain plug on the deck out.

Great video Andy. Nice day on the Russian River! Looks like you were pointing pretty well in that section coming back from the Duncan's Mill bridge. Was it less tacking than last time we went? It looked like an easier run home than my previous times. I also like the hill there at minute 2:39...

Sailrite sent me a yard x 4 1/2 feet of red adhesive sailcloth for About $45 after shipping). I used tracing paper to trace the Sunfish outline from my LP sail. Then I used that to make a cardboard cutout and with the cardboard cutout, I traced the pattern onto the sail cloth. I carefully cut...

I liked my Intensity practice race sail on my new, '69 Sunfish so much, I bought one for my 2018 here in California. I replaced the LP sail in my profile photo with it and took Signal Charlies advice and got some material from Sailrite. I cut my own Sunfish logo and put it on the Intensity sail...
