out sailing the hobie 16. fantastic boat, amazing design.
Had a great day sailing last weekend. Came ashore near the gold course for beer and tacos. If you get a chance to play on a beach catamaran I suggest you take it. Hobie 16 is an amazing vehicle. It was light wind and we still hit ten knots (11.5mph/18.5kmph)
ok @flyingtrilobite.com We chatted the other day about music. But holy hell Ive just gone down the rabbit hole on the quebec duo Angine de Poitrine. Fucking amazing. Would love to see them live.
With the artemis mission complete we cant forget that Buzz Aldrin had to claim a travel voucher for $33 that derails his whole journey, including the moon. :)
