I have been wanting to sail for a while now - I even built a small sailboat but I never had the guts to put it in the water. I don't know what it was - stage fright, lack of confidence, maybe just plain old fear of the unknown. Anyhow, Keely talked me into signing up for sailing lessons, and so I went to school (again.) There were 9 of us to begin with, and we met at the Willamette Sailing Club near Willamette Park in Portland.
