We put our very first sailboat of our married life on the curb in Pittsburgh. It was $80, foam-type fiberglass, and had a green and white sail with the Kool cigarettes logo on it. I had spilled wood stain on it and ate a hole through the styrofoam. A couple of kids knocked on the door and asked for it.

I'm okay with that kind of stuff.
I had one of those Kool sailboats back in the early 1970s. It came with a little booklet on how to sail. I actually taught myself to sail with that boat and booklet. Stepped up over the years until I was finally sailing a 32' sailboat on Tampa Bay.

Great memories.
