Default Propulsion: Outboard, inboard, I-O? No SAILS!

I grew up sailing for sport, and find that with a sailboat,
one is already where one is going.

Why would you choose one type of propulsion over another?


Quiet, doesn't pollute, a challenge to the senses & the
intellect & the muscles all in one.

Racing sailboats may be as silly & pointless as trying to
throw or hit or kick a particular ball in a particular
direction, but IMHO it's the most fun people can have with
their clothes on.
