Got Trim – Foredeck Monkey

An Almost Broad Reach.

Not quite Broad…not quite Tight, but these fuckers are flying. Yabu do loves him some sailing. I grew up as a Foredeck Monkey. I can drive…I can trim…I can grind…I can work the sewer, I can fetch a cold beverage, but I can walk like a cat on the foredeck. It gets dangerous up front…trust me…especially when doing sets or rounding marks.

I use to race sailboats all the time…years and years. I’ve never stepped off one without bleeding somewhere.

Anyway, these folks are having some BIG fun.

    It’s been years since I’ve done any sailing; and then it was only on a quiet lake!
