I finally got my friend to come sailing with me after begging all summer long.
Winds were blowing about 15 mph. straight into shore, tried taking off from the beach, lake is so low it kept blowing us aground. So we pulled it to the boat ramp where it dropped off deeper, just as I told my friend to jump on the boat just as it turned abruptly and capized at the the boat ramp with the mast hitting the concret ramp. The whole time we had an onlooker, so we put him to work lifting the mast as my friend and myself righted the boat in 2 ft of water. Lucky for me no major damage to the boat. After that we sailed to the end of the lake and coming back where out on trapezee wires hauling ass, wanting to impress my friend. Next thing we know we are being flung through the air, as the port side pontoon hit a wave. It was great we righted it back up and off we went. I think he was impressed, althought he has not ask to come sailing since. Sorry no video.
