A Fast Sailboat

A lot of years ago, in a holidays at "La costa Brava" in the Mediterrean Sea, I enjoyed for two days a sailing experience. It was an impressive experience in a little but fast sailboat, with one mast and for two people. It is named if not fail my memory, "Chopper". I remember that the boom, an horizontal spar that is joined to the mast, hit my head some times the first day. When the sailboot is turning around, you must pay attention to the fast movement of the boom, and go down the head. This was one of my more fun days of that holidays.
