It took me just under two weeks but I’m finally done with this crazy thing.

I absolutely hate rigging 😂 I’m not even sure if it’s all 100% right

About 20 years ago when I was really into my rc sailboat, I used to love going over to the reservoir after work. I would almost always have this one quiet area to myself and just enjoyed the tranquility. This song often played in my head.
 
Wow. It actually sails! I always wondered, if the wind is blowing you away from shore, how do you sail her back home?
I hope I don’t find out for a while. Like @Xraycer said the tranquility is awesome it’s a good way to unwind after a long day. I don’t know who invented motorized boats but they’re stupid🤣😜

A sailing technique call tacking is used to sail a boat upwind. The boat work its way upwind, but has to do so in a zig zag pattern.

That's just too much of a waste of time for me. I'd have to drop a blown 427 into it for the times when I wanted to go against the wind 😄

A lore tells of the first time a viking discovered this and showed it to people. The people burned him at the stake for witchcraft 😱

I've heard that vikings like their stakes well done. 🤣

And those are the people that came up with using a sunstone to focus sunlight onto a board for navigating, even on really dark and dreary days.
