What else would you do?

February 1st, 2008

With the Beijing Olympics approaching us we are soon going to be bombarded with many different sports that grab our attention.

After the Australian Open (Tennis), tennis racket sales increased considerably. After the Soccer (Football) World Cup, more and more people of all ages found their own soccer ball and were hitting the local pitch more than ever. At the beginning of a new sporting season the nerves and excitement run wild as a new adventure opens up.

So what would you be doing if you were not a sailing fanatic? I say fanatic due to the opinionated responses sparked behind the pages of the LSD Forums. We are fanatics as we are fantasied by the skill, tack and sheer romance that is sailing.

If I was not into sailing then soccer would be my first choice, followed closely by baseball and or ice hockey. Sports that are completely different to not only each other, but to sailing as well. Non of them require water, apart from ice hockey, which is frozen water.

So what else would you do if you were not a sailor? Where would you be today and what do you think you would be doing on your weekends if time wasn’t spent in, on and around the water…?
