ReplyDeleteDoes reading blogs about sailing count towards the total?
Probably reading and writting only counts a little and maybe sailing canoe pictures--not much. But then an Old Town Canoe was the first thing I ever sailed and that was 100 years ago.
ReplyDeleteYou've been sailing 100 years? So if you only put in 2 hours a week... that now adds up to 2 x 50 x 100 = 10,000 hours. You must be awesome!
ReplyDeleteMalcolm just says that the really top notch people put in 10,000 or more before they are really good. Probably you can put in that much and still be bad--- so just give advice to others then.
