IN the groove, everything feels fast and right and perfect. You want to stay in the groove as long as you can because you are getting everything out of that boat’s performance that you possibly can.

IN sailing, there is something called the groove. It is not a place, well, technically, it is, but it is more a feeling. It’s when the wind is in your face, the sails are set and trimmed perfectly, main and jib in tight, going upwind heeling at 30-35 degrees, water rushing under you and the boat feels like it is powering itself, just flying along, which is really an oxymoron because the one thing sailing is not is fast.
