If Michaels rowing and sister is trimming the sail, either the wind has died down or they haven't been tacking properly and getting michael to row is the fastest way home.

My question was a serious one. I live in a house on a marina that has about 300 boats. When the sailboats pass my window on the canal into Lake Simcoe, usually a man steers and a woman sits up front with her legs spread apart. I don't know why, something to do with sailing. Yachts and motorboats usually have men driving, except when a couple of women are heading out by themselves. I have two single seater kayaks so whoever goes for a ride gets to paddle and steer. That also means that I have to talk to my neighbours when I want to fool around with naughtical jargon.
