What? you can sail in winter, the lakes don't freeze that often. Braassem is nice spot to sail :-)

Great Job on the boat. The Dutch FD sailers are a great group and fun to sail with. Where are you located?

They have always only been sort of Europe :-D Outside of the UK I've never seen an Etchells in Europe, apparently there is a small fleet in the Netherlands but that's it. Solings do seem to have some active local fleets, not too much but they are there.

Boofing- Taking drugs including alcohol anally never heard another meaning.

Hey, that's what we do here in Germany too,

He is what he is. I like the guy and it's been a long time but it was always cool sailing with him. I can see how he polarizes, I agree with a lot of what he says but could never express it like he does. All and all I'm glad he does it his way.

I watched from a bar in Vettle's home town of Heppenheim which is near my sailing club, That was fun. They change the sign when you come in to the town to "Vettelheim"

She was sort of back of the middle but she had a couple of good races, was the 2016 Austrian Nationals. She is a super nice young girl. Her BF sails a Finn, she mostly sails Lasers but and she had borrowed one of our club boats for a Regatta or two so we ended up giving her a boat that no one was using. Just borrowed her old Taylor Finn for a Regatta at their club on the Mosel River at Koblenz. Not a great place for sailing usually but it was a nice motorcycle ride up the Rhein and back.

This is my favorite pic of my current boat when I loaned it to a friend to sail in the Austrian Nationals,

Enough of the witch hunt, can we get to the burning at the stake part?

Good job. I was 11 when an officemate of my dad's took me out on his Hobie 16. Have been sailing ever since.

Had a nice ride to Bitche saturday :-) Having a blast with my new old F650

Aren’t they in Silicone Valley all into microdosing.?

I don't know what the EU's stance is, here in Germany where I have been living the last 18 years the legalization movement is getting stronger. Medical has been legalized but very very few can get a prescriptions. Big differences between the states, very conservative Bavaria and the East or more open states like NRW. Several city's are starting to experiment with legal sales but still have a ways to go.I think France and Spain are still pretty far away from it but it's everywhere. The legal US states are certainly showing the way. Things in The Netherlands are pretty much the same. A few years ago they passed a law that you had to be a resident to get the WietPass to go in a Coffeeshop but most city's wide not to enact it. Certainly most of the bigger city's, the Randstad city's Amsterdam, Utrecht, Rotterdam it's bushiness as usual. I was just in Lylestad sailing, there the Shops are closed to tourists. A few km's away in Almere or Enkhuizen they're open. I wonder how is it in Portugal, all is decriminalized but how is Cannabis.

When living in the US Hash was rare and so special, here it's normal but still I have something inside that says ohhh wow Hash. Mostly prefer weed but Hash is nice if you have to carry it around.
