Takahashi's Non-Traffic Related Team Report: Week 6
"Non-Traffic Related Incidents"
Team #6 Report: Week
Six
Staying on the water thing I decided to search on sailing using
the Webcrawler! When the subtopics came up I saw one title that I found
interesting which was called "Mark
Rosenstein's Sailing
Page." After clicking on this subject I was not disappointed.
On this sailing page was the sub-heading called "1996
Olympics-Yachting" and so I clicked on it and was amazed! This article
really opened up my mind to a sport I never gave another look besides
watching "Water World."
The word yacht came from the Dutch people which translates into a
boat that was designed especially for chasing and hunting. Also the
olympic sport of yachting has been included in every Olympics except
1904. "In the Atlanta 1996 Olympics the Yachting event will be held off
the Georgia Coast, near Savannah where over 400 Yachting competitors will
compete in 10 medal events."
Yachting is described in this article as a demanding and precise
sport which combines skill, endurance, and a sure sense of the ocean and
her variables.
