Sailing, half-Pathed

April 19, 2007 | by Trevor

Not an official 2Paths event, but there was plenty of Pathian presence onboard the J24 “Now” at the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club regatta on the weekend. Gord and Trevor are genuine members of the tribe. Nigel, 2Paths espresso guru, skippered his first regatta in the boat. We could give Nigel .5 rating for his coffee contribution, and let’s give him a nominal .25 rating for being offspring of a genuine 2Pather. Then there’s Nicki, who, as girlfriend of Nigel, could rate a .125 of a 2Pather, while Rebecca, as a wife of, should rate no less than a .25, yielding an easy half-Path score for participation.

There’s no time for photo opportunities during racing, but we had time to relax and share stories between races.

To complete the team photos, here’s the photographers finger, showing the sacrifices made on the otherwise wonderful weekend.

    Considering Nigel’s (and your) efforts to restore the expresso machine, I say we bump his 2Pathianism (check that one out!) to at least a 0.75.

    Save our soul!

    in those photos Gord looks like he’s from a weird version of the “Matrix” where everyone is a maritime fisherman
