Cruising sailors tend to prefer things like swimming from their boat; Racing sailors prefer the water on top of their boat instead; They will spend as much money on sails as their boat is worth; They will sail so close together you could jump to the next boat; They will remove their dodger so they can fully enjoy all that water on top of their boat; They will crawl onto a pitching foredeck to lash down a sail because they don’t have a furler; They will climb onto the boom to install a reef line so they don’t have to slow the boat down; They will fly a spinnaker in 20 knots of wind or more; They won’t even bother taking down their own spinnaker, and will just let God do it; And they will do all of this whether it’s day or night, regardless of whether they can see or not; All for getting their boat’s name engraved on some stupid trophy, and getting some yellow flags to boast about their accomplishments, and for some unforgettable moments with friends - priceless!!!

Fascists (Nazi) protest for their human rights in Alicante spain outside the hostel located in florida I was staying in. The building was Francisco Franco Bahamondes home then it became a juvenile detention center then a hostel and beacon for fascist remembrance day or whatever this is. Like how these things go it involves random confused moron's supporting a cause that they don't even understand or see how retarded it is. Plus the Spanish like everyone on this planet are mongrels anyway meaning mixed bred or as the royals would say impure as they are all inbred but that's another story. History lesson coming...... Get ready to be blown away! Francisco Franco Bahamonde (4 December 1892 – 20 November 1975) was a Spanish military general who led the Nationalist forces in overthrowing the Second Spanish Republic during the Spanish Civil War and thereafter ruled over Spain from 1939 to 1975 as a dictator, assuming the title Caudillo. This period in Spanish history, from the Nationalist victory to Franco's death, is commonly known as Francoist Spain or as the Francoist dictatorship. Which as you can imagine was a barrel of laughs for the people (Sarcasm). Franco was best buddies with Adolf Hitler despite what the so called historians say as, he sent 50,000 volunteers to fight alongside the Germans on the Soviet front during WW2. Franco also had a beautiful picture of Adolf Hitler on his desk whilst modelling his Hugo boss swagger.

It was the first time diving skills didn't come easy to me. Looking back, I should've stopped after the sidemount course and gotten comfortable in the configuration by fun diving before moving on to the technical courses. My hope in sharing this is to help others feel empowered to slow down their training goals. I truly believe it will help you in the long run.
