Heaved to on a starboard tack, stand-on vessel to just about everyone else. Or in non-sailing parlance: going nowhere fast on purpose and everybody has to go around me.

Location is the Barnett Reservoir outside Jackson, MS. The boat is a homemade Argie 15, an older Dudley Dix design.

Hardly top-tier sailing content, but we need to start somewhere.

      Funny you say that. As I recall, it was just about this point when I heaved to that I realized I had been dragging a line in the water for awhile. It was embarrassing.
