Buy a sailboat that is popular in your area. Sailing with other people in the same class of boat is the most fun. Check different class websites to see if they have clubs or regattas near where you live. 2 boats that are very popular nationwide are the Dragon 95 and the Laser. I own two Lasers and find they are extremely easy to sail and a little larger in size for my old eyes to see. Lots of locals within 60 miles have them so I can compete or leisure sail. Lasers are not cheap new, but second hand can be had for $200.Don't just fly--WREAK HAVOC!!!
