  1. I thought wood boats floated! :-o

    I not sure what to say. Vikings may have built the first sailboat, but, I not sure anyone knows for sure. Colors of the rainbow. Many are various colors and Sails can be very Colorful and Festive.

  2. Early man found that an animal skin on a log raft would get them going faster than paddling when the wind was blowing, it went from there... hollowed logs, then some outriggers.  From there it just kept getting better.

    I guess the first color of a sailboat would be.... say "bark" colored, unless of course they debarked the logs before they tied them together with vines....  Once they found that they could stain the wood with different things to make them prettier, Katie bar the door......

  3. Research the America's Cup, its sailboat competitive racing history in a nutshell
