Crazy skies all wild above me now

I am strangely attracted to this little boat; it is one of two little skiffs which operate as part of Troon Coastal Rowing Club,

It looks grand; a wee bit enjoyable, a wee bit scary, but there's a couple of things holding me back. 

1. Sea sickness

2. fear of being in a wee tiny piece of wood in the middle of a great big freaking ocean.
