The Phantom of the ... Lake?

     My boys enjoyed the lightest of winds on our nearby lake. I added a new (used) sail to our Phantom sailboat to replace our ripped, faded sail. We looked less like scurvy sailors. Fortunately, my youngest son's fears of the water were banished as he begged to go faster, but the wind whispered for him to wait. And my eldest learned lessons about having to tack to reach your destination, a good lesson for any impetuous ten-year-old boy.
