My dad golfed a little bit because he sold insurance and that's where the money guys hung out... He did have a small sailboat in the later years. but when he raced it against his friends in town, he was always a bit annoyed when I would show up to help him win on Saturdays wearing my greasy jeans and work boots with caked mud falling off. I was the go kart king of my 'hood. I even built a 12' boat with a 2 1/2 hp briggs as an inboard. The briggs came off a compressor when the gas station owner switched to electric. Who was your mom? We seem an awful lot like brothers.
