Subject: Stus-List Grew Up Sailing..

 

I am fortunate enough that my parents were (Still are)  pretty "trendy" back
in the day and the whole family got into the sailing craze of the mid /
late70's :-)  

My dad gave that up a long long time ago but it was far more than a fad for
yours truly.. 

Here's little 'ol Francois circa 1978 putting "Idefix" our  Jean Morin 470
on the rack for the evening right alongside with my very 1st  sailboat:  S/V
Sabotage at our summer cottage on lake Lac a la Tortue, near Shawinigan
Quebec, 

My 1st boat was a Sabot, I learned to sail on that at age 8 or so before the
Optimists became all the rage.   My sister and I must have raced the 470 a
couple hundred times over the years..  Definitely my best childhood memories
with my older sister.   I still have it.
