Wet and woolly across the Gulf
Article Abstract:
A man describes an adventure he had sailing on a 42-ft cutter-rigged ketch in the Gulf of Mexico. The boat was hit by a fierce storm that ripped apart the mainsail and disabled the steering system. However, quick repairs saved the trip, and he enjoyed one beautiful evening under the moonlight.
