Yesterday I went sailing with Bryce and Kash. We did some training, then we pushed the boat in the water.
At the beginning Bryce was scared. He was scared of the boat tipping over but a few minutes later I go so sick, and then I got scared. We bumped into other boats. We got a ride on the speedboat.
Then when we were going back to shore, we bumped into the deck. Then Kash jumped out of the boat. He and Bryce were scared. Then we hit the stones and we got out. We had to get the trailer, then put the trailer in the water. They put the boat on the trailer, then brought the boat back. Then we took the gear off.
It was fun.

When I went sailing, we set the sailing boats up. Then we got our wetsuits on and got our life jackets too. After that we picked our buddies and got the sailing boat off the trailer and started sailing.
We all raced to the yellow thing in the water. We were in the front until we reached the yellow thing in the water. After, one of the sailing boats went in front of us.
Simon called us to come to him and he clipped on. He went so fast! We went past the house boat.

At sailing we had to build the sail. First we put the sail into the hole where the sail goes. Then we attached the pole to the sail and fitted it in. Next we tied a knot on a rope to keep it in. The sail is built!
Now we could get ready so we put our togs on. Then we got a wetsuit. After we got our wetsuits on, we got a jacket for extra warmth. Soon after, we got a PFD which stands for Personal Floatation Device. Yes, we are now ready to get on the water.
First we got numbered 1, 2 and 3. I was Number 2 so my job was to be in charge of the sail. I had to help Number 1 by getting the boat in the water. Number 3 got to sit in the front. Off we go!
On the way back from sailing, our boat started to sink so we let go of the sail rope and kept scooping out water. There was about 40 scoops of water. Then we got to shore.
