My family are my wife and four girls (I know, its a hard life) the first one 19 yo, the second is 14 yo and twins of 6 yo, so the other day my wife wanted to go to a near marina for lunch, so we set sails and headed to the marina (it's a one hour trip) we were doing 3 to 4 knots, lake was calm, one of the twin girls was playing cards in the table, the bigger daugther was helping me sail, and the other twin was with the middle sister on the bow getting sun and playing with the water. When we where halfway I hear a crying sound coming from the water as we pass by, the twin that was playing in the bow had gone overboard, and was crying, her sister didn't tell anything even when she let her hand go and fell overboard, I wasn't worried, she was using her life vest, (nobody can go to sail with me without wearing a lifevest ) and she is a good swimer, water temp was 25C (77 F) , my wife was worried and the other twin wanted to jump to save her sister, the older sister was joking abou the fact that no one see the kid going overboard, so I have to calm down the crew and turn around to rescue my little sunshine! while turning she was yelling "I'm not going to survive!!, I'm not going to survive!!" with that every one calm down and start LOL! she was like 5 min on the water! take her out of the water and was calm and smiling about her adventure.
So I will have to move up the priority of the stanchions and lifeline of the boat.
Just a fun summer story to let you chill with you winter weather up there
