This Columbia 22 has a mast height over 30'. http://www.sailingtexas.com/scolumbia22103.html http://www.sailingtexas.com/scolumbia22103.html
I don't sail, so I have nothing to prove, but something doesn't feel quite right about this story.
- mark_l_watson 8y agoThe story is true. It was a long time ago but I remember the head being up near the top of the mast, the rest of the body would have been lower. My strongest memories are of a beady black eye looking down on me and the feeling of the boat rolling.
- michaelcampbell 8y agoI believe you believe it to be.
- Chunklight 8y agoSailing stories always become a little more dramatic with each retelling. An orca 15 feet above you on a small boat would be awesome and terrifying in a way units of measure cannot express.
