Dinghies Today, America's Cup Tomorrow

When the tanned and freckled faces of Little Silver and Oceanport kids head back to school this September, there will be three who have something special to write in their "what-I-did-this-summer" essays.

Fifth graders Erine Ruane and Julie Valinoti of Oceanport and Will Perry of Little Silver were each winners of an essay contest this spring, sponsored by the past commodores of the Shrewsbury Sailing and Yacht Club ( SSYC ) in Oceanport. The winners each received a scholarship for a summer of sailing lessons at the club.

From their essays you can hear the sailor's heart in each of them.

Erin opened her essay with this:

"Since I was three years old, whenever I went over the Gooseneck Bridge I would see the little, tiny sailboats in the river. I would always say that one day I would sail in the mini sailboats below!"

Now Erin is one of those sailors in the boats under the bridge. Her favorite part she says is visiting the beaches and islands in the river.

Julia, who rides her bike to her twice-a-week lessons, said sailing is the "best thing in her life." In her essay she wrote that she comes from a family of sailors. Julia had heard the stories of sailing and racing from her grandfather and uncles and now, she hoped, she could tell them of her own nautical adventures.

"I love to learn new things," she wrote. "I love to swim. I love the water. I love seeing the fish in the water - even the jellyfish. I love how it feels when the wind blows in my hair."

Will titled his essay, A Deep Desire , and from the sound of it, his love for the water runs deeper than the Shrewsbury River. "I would love to be cruising across the enchanting ocean, jumping the waves and having loads of fun... It would be so relaxing to watch the sun bounce off the shining, shimmering water. I really would love to sail."

Now that he is out on the water, Will says it is exactly like he thought it would be - relaxing and calm. But the best part, he said, is "being independent.
