What is it about the Nordic Folkboat? There sure are a lot of stories to tell and we sure are spoiled rotten to sail where we do. We race just inside the Golden Gate Bridge minutes from where we keep our boats where winds regularly hit 20-30 knots. I feel lucky just to be apart of the fleet. The friends and cast of characters, the racing, the travelling to European regattas... it's all too good to believe. The unbelievable blessing continues.
What a georgous day! It was actually uncomforably hot in SF today. But, 11 days into her life we took her down to the boat to get a feel for what it will be like to be crew... minus the yelling. We put this line in her hands and she didn't take it... She slept the whole time. This either means the gentle swaying and glug, glug of the water on the hull relaxes her to sleep... or she was sea sick.

I'm not obsessed with Folkboats, just committed. If you have any Folkboat stories and/or pictures send them my way and I'll post them for you.
