[quote=MN3][quote]He said he'd help me if I needed ...
no thank you, no asking if he could help me. Then again, he wasn't a sailor but a fishing kayaker...[/quote]
what more do you need?
I used to be very afraid of dropping my mast on someone on our very busy beach, and it stopped me from sailing a lot (i wouldn't rig solo)
If you speak up, (most) people are glad to help you get in the water. I am sure of this. many may act pissed, or gruff but don't let that stop you from sailing ... even if they act that way, they like being the "authority" and helping ... (been there, done that)
now that i have rigged over 1000 times there, i can tell you it's not a big deal to ask for help, and you should be willing to help other boaters ...<!-- editby --><em>Edited by MN3 on May 13, 2015 - 06:17 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
