Started RC Sail racing yesterday. Got two slightly used boats Tuesday. Raced Saturday.
Won my first start, then lost the lead. Winds went from fluky to zero.
Got two DFLs.

I'd bet I could get into that. And less risk than crashing a drone or a RC helicopter on someone's head.

The national organization shows no activity in OK
They are fun to sail without racing.

It could be relaxing.
The races were a one mile lap around the little lake.
Never sailed while walking a rocky path dotted with the doo doo of Canada Geese.
It was relaxing when it was over.
