Tantrum? Yep, AKA that
"Damn Red Boat"

Sometimes it's just hard. Life gets you down, you feel like everything is never going to get right and really... Why bother. Then a friend asks you if you sail and you remember that twenty-five years ago you did learn how to sail. Your mind is rusty and you remember that you never really got good but you did earn you skippers license, or was that just a piece of paper? Hard to believe, but over the years you have sailed all kinds of boats and even took a course in Hawaii so you could rent them at Hickam Harbor. Now years later, your feet are still a little unsure and yet you manage. Sure enough the wind helps blow a little, just a little hope into your soul.


Well, that and the post race beers. Tantrum is known as that Damn Red Boat. Her owner is a Naval Surgeon, her skipper a commercial pilot-CFII and recently she left the dock with three Naval Academy grads as crew/rail meat.
