Dinghy sailing when you were young

I learnt windsurfing on the local lake, always in full waterproofs, and tight life jacket, fantastic days .

Sadly never had the chance since to hire a canoe and go for a paddle.

If you are lacking the opportunity to paddle wear your waterproofs in a puddle.

Here's some pictures of sailing waterproofs, some of which is PVC, from the 60's to the 80's.
