[Rhodes22-list] to Bob - RE Virtural Skipper Game

[Bob Weber]

Hadz, Yes I am the instructor and it is quite a dog and pony show describing 
the most simple manuvers.   Try explaining the difference of Jibing & 
Tacking to someone who has never seen a sailboat.  Visual displays are worth 
a thousand words.  My mailing address is
Bob Weber
857 Pebblefield Ter.
St. Louis, MO 63021
