no lazy people buy a single wire boat so the crew does all the "ballast" work and the helm lays back in his/her armchair at the back and occasionally when they feel energetic they call for a tack!!

id say a lazy person wouldnt be bothered trapezing or hiking, theyd just let it turtle and have a quick snooze on the upturned hull...

Of course youve all forgotten the best way to keep a boat upright.

Sliding seat.

Hiking is a no-brainer...

no brain = no pain. 

(And anyone who can stand being in the gym long enough to be fit enough not to find hiking painful has obviously had a frontal lobotomy...)

No argument from me. Why walk to work when you have a car?

Not sure about the freaks thing tho, why would anyone normal want to put themselves though such pain on the upwind legs - and the grunting and groaning from the Laser boys we pass sounds a bit like the sad/mad/mistreated animals from the circus.

''trapezing is practised by lazy people and circus freaks- sailing gives these lazy people another chance to behave like they're in a circus!''
