Thanks Kathy & Lance. Thankfully there are safety rails. The hardest part was trying to keep the horizon level.

What an angle… Is that the boat you used to travel around Australia?

Unfortunately no. My husbands wish is to buy a yacht and travel. This is one we hired down at Metung and played on the Gippsland lakes.

georgiegirl
That looks so amazing… how is it that it didn’t tip over?
Dharna replied
These is a huge lump of weight on the bottom so it can’t fall over. Took me quite a few trips to get to enjoy this. The first trip I thought I was going to die.

Love ‘N’ Laughter Kriss
Dharna replied
Thanks CLiPiCs. Everything was just right this day. The wind can be quite gusty on the lakes due to the surrounding land. But this day the wind was steady and in one direction. PERFECT!!!
Dharna
A big thankyou to everyone else that has commented. I am sorry for lack of replies.
Jon Johnson
Outstanding shot! ‘You aren’t truly sailing unless the gunnels are in the water!’ as the saying goes…
Dharna replied
Thanks Jon. I’ve been sailing for 20 years now and in the beginning I thought I was going to die…..now I love it. we take turns to see who can lean the most. This day we nearly lost a fishing rod overboard.

At this angle there is not much to hang on to. Just had to brace myself and hope for the best. Actually looks worse than it really is, but why spoil a shot with the truth
