RE: A Funny, Yet Embarrassing Sailing Story

in #sailing9 years ago

Just as I got to the docks, another boat owner showed up with a little dinghy to help. He towed me the other 30 or so feet back to my dock and all was good.

Even if marina workers restricted in their ability to help - what's actually strange - it's cool that sailor mutual assistance exist in all parts of the world ocean)

Yes for sure. Most people are always willing to help someone if they can. It's sad that the marina wouldn't do anything in that situation but, I can see their point of view as well. It was only a younger fella, probably just working there for the summer. If it was someone a little older, with a little more authority, I'd imagine they would have made the decision to help. ​

One can only hope.
