What's your best Flint School memory? Worst? Scariest?
My scariest would be either when we lost the bowsprit on Quest on the
transatlantic, (thought the masts were next for a while) or when i rode the
foresail gaff saddle up the mast that time we left Dover in a force 8,
had 15 foot waves running across the deck as we past the break water,
only time i really used the 3-pt system while climbing. That whole sail
sucked, only one on my watch who had his own harness,ie only one
stationed
way forward with the white water. never saw Quest bury the bow like
Vega.
Worst: either bow watch/English channel/winter/ice/wind over
the bow/dog
watch, (same sail as above) or water skiing that time off Copenhagen in
Jan, (wasn't too bad when you were up, but my partner
Todd Brinegar
fell TWICE!) or swiming class in Malaga Spain also in Jan. (I shivered all
the way through 3rd period)
Best? Maybe the VW tour through the Alps, staying in the Youth hostels.
Danced my 1st time with some german girl at the Munich hostel, to
crockadile rock... god, that sounds tacky now.
