Mindbender

By George Day · On May 3, 2021

What are the eight sailing classes that will be sailed in this summer’s Olympics in Japan?

 

Send your answers to cruisingcompass@bwsailing.com. A winner will be selected randomly from the correct answers and will win a one-year subscription to the digital version of Blue Water Sailing magazine.

 

Congratulations to Sarah Ritter of Galveston, TX who correctly answered last week’s Mindbender. “Samuel Clemens’ pen name was Mark Twain. The mark twain is the second full marking on a lead line measuring fathoms. When a leadsman calls out mark twain he is saying the river or body of water is two fathoms or 12 feet deep. So, if  Mark Twain was as tall as his name, he’d be 12 feet tall.”
