Most folks seem to have an idea that being on a sailboat is some sort of dangerous enterprise and while bad stuff can happen, the odds that you will come to grief are much less than, say ...
Getting run over while crossing the street or, for that matter, just about anything involving automobiles. Fact of the matter is, shore-side life comes with some serious hazard territory! Face it, you are a lot safer in mid-Atlantic than you are on the Hollywood freeway!
Then again stuff does happen on the water but most of it involves engines, stupidity and drinking... Like this penis extension!
Be smart, stay safe and keep a weather eye out for folks dead set on cleansing the gene pool...
