Yet, much to the committee’ssurprise, one starter is the girlwho had such a discouraging morning.She’d dropped out of the secondbut is now back. She doesn’t cross thestart out front. And she doesn’t finishthere, either. But she does finish, andthe big smile on her face when shecrosses the line is one of pure triumph.As for the boy who crossed thestart bailing, he’s still bailing when hecrosses the finish. And he finishes highenough to end the day with silverware.Finally, just for the record, the everenthusiasticnumber 4974 also finishesmuch better than mid-fleet. When itcomes to starts, it turns out he’s somethingof an artiste. Especially once he’sfigured out which fleet to start with.Bill Schaill has published six nauticalthrillers and hundreds of magazine andnewspaper articles on all subjects; sailedaboard a square-rigged school ship; majoredin Spanish and studied in Colombia; servedas a naval salvage diving officer (a“Bubblehead”); devoted 20 years to educationalpublishing; started several other businessventures and raised two daughters. Hecontinues to sail and dive and wonder wherethe money went. www.wsschaill.com68 June 2012 SOUTHWINDS www.southwindsmagazine.com
