Dinghy Sailing - It can make you go blind.

Graeme.. that's a bummer chap. Sorry to hear about it.
Am liking the eye patch thing though.  Chicks dig scars and all that.......
I have "interesting" eyes as well, (specs since the age of two ),
and have always sailed like I have one eye anyway, and as far as I
can discern others sail that way as well. Can't all be me surely.
So it's not going to be the end of your sailing career.

Anyhow, if the quacks can't help, then perhaps a visit to the forum
of Practical Boat Owner might help.  They must surely have some wheeze
or gadget for getting a spot of superglue round the back there, and stick
the b*gger back on.

Another thought occurred... did "self abuse" contribute to this problem?
