Sailing a Tin Can - My first time sailing a canoe: the naïve approach
It has been almost
40 years since I first sailed a canoe, and now is the time to share the
experience. I’ll ask the reader to do the same when the time is right,
especially if it’s a good story.
I
was with my Boy Scout troop out of Miami. We went for a canoe trip into
the 10,000 Islands area of Florida, a place where the land and sea
fight for preeminence over the very southern tip of the state.
