It's a lot more fun sailing against 10 other boats in a class that's sorta kinda OK than sailing around on your own in your dream boat.<BR/><BR/>That's why I, and then my sons, got into Sunfish sailing when we moved to New Jersey. IMHO it's very much a poor alternative to a Laser but it's what they sailed on the lake across from our house, and all over the North Jersey lakes.<BR/><BR/>Twenty years later, several North Americans, three Worlds, various Florida midwinter trips, two kids who became junior North Jersey Lakes champions, uncountable Sunday mornings sailing Sunfish together as a family, three summers spent running a kids program in Sunfish, one - only one - regatta win for me in the North Jersey Lakes series, and a gazillion happy memories... I have no regrets.<BR/><BR/>May you and your kids have as much fun in the Miracle as we did in Sunfish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
