If #MobyDick has taught me anything, it's that #sailors are #gay, #GayMarriage was always legal under #MaritimeLaw, and whaling ships are just big gay orgies, and that's why they don't want women there to tempt them into being straight.

This is simply a straightforward reading of the text. If you don't like it, maybe you don't like classic #American #Literature. 🇺🇸 📖 🫡

Joyful group of #VictoriaBC #sailors embark on first #SalishSea outing.

A total of 12 clients of the #GarthHomerSociety paired with the #NorthSaanich #SailingClub in their first #partnership.

In partnership with #AbleSail Victoria – a charity providing #AccessibleSailing opportunities for children and adults with #disabilities – the club opened its boats to clients of the Garth Homer Society for a crash course in #sailing.

My #DisabledSailing association, #AbleSail Victoria secured a funding grant from #SailCanada & now can offer a CANSAIL 1 course at Royal Victoria Yacht Club. I signed up this morning for training in August.
Once I successfully complete CanSail 1, I can take their Can Sail 2 course. These will help me reach my adaptive sailing dreams of competing in a future Mobility Cup regatta.

Very grateful for all funding grants & donors for helping Able Sail Victoria with monies needed to keep their programs running. Disabled folks like me wouldn't be able to afford participating if the programs weren't highly subsidized.

Took my Mohawk sister-friend, Ojistoh, out for her first sail. Gorgeous weather today & we had some nice breezes on the ocean ☺️⛵️💗

Party waves. Not really. So many boats were out today. These weren't as big as some other wake waves from powerboats. I couldn't film anything when those larger wakes hit us because I was busy angling sailboat to counter them.

Astrid(on the left) gave me some good news when I returned from my sail today. The Able Sail Victoria program will be extended into September. I'm stoked! I can get in more sailing practice 😃👍⛵️

I had a fantastic sail adventure today. Took my friend, Nadene, out for her first Martin 16 sailing experience. She loved it & took a ton of photos. We had fab winds on the waters today & I got to do a lot of keeling 😀 Fun time, on the ocean, on a gorgeous day!

Our rescue rangers came fast & pulled sailboat, far away from the rocks.

My first sailing accident. Got caught on rocks. I was able to dislodge sailboat but waves kept pushing us back towards rocks.

Visibility was almost nil on waters for most of my session. I found some pockets of wind & took advantage of those, as often as I could.

It was really foggy out on the ocean today!
Almost no winds until we reached mouth of the bay. I was happy to take Mom out for her very first sailing experience ☺️ She found it to be very relaxing. We saw some seals, mergansers, few American coots & a couple of buffleheads.
Back at RVYC on August 22.

#Sailing back into #RVYC marina. Picked up some wind on way back in & had fun 😃⛵️

I had a great first solo #sailing session this afternoon. Winds were tricky today. Winds changed directions 5 times in 2 hours. Lots of adjustments on my sails today.

I got yacht club approval to take my Mom out as my passenger, for her very first sailing adventure, tomorrow morning! I'm pretty stoked about that. Mom has never been in any sailboat before! I'm not taking her very far because she gets scared of open ocean (while I love open ocean!). It will be very nice to take my Mom out for her first sailing experience 😊⛵️

#RVYC #AbleSailVictoria crew in #ZodiacBoat - heading out to set an upwind marker near mouth of the bay for me to practice sailing a set course & do some figure 8s maneuvering around. Good practice to build up adaptive #sailing navigation & steering skills on my solo practice sails.

Saving some time by getting towed out to sailing practice course markers, by one of the #RVYC safety/coach #ZodiacBoats.

I'll upload brief clip of sailing back to marina after practicing some demo race course navigation, soon. Had some nice winds during my first solo adaptive #sailing session today ⛵️😊

I had fun #sailing in the fog today. Zorah sat in stern seat & monitored the safety radio as I sailed around #CadboroBay waters.
