Most sailors are partisan to sailing rather than motor boating. Motors are a necessary evil, a stinky, noisy way to get out and get in....if you must. How do we sway kids away from desire for tubing, skiing and just plain zooming across a lake to get to who knows where or why in a big hurry (..esp those jet skis ... just plain WRONG- lol) , and instead impart the unbridled love of pure wind and sea?
Here's a start! Tennessee and Chumley to the rescue!

Love it, educational cartoons.
Remember the Wayback machine in which Mr. Peabody and Sherman gave us history lessions (and we didn't even know it)

There was also one that had a British colonel (Commander Bragg?) who would tell some outrageously unlikely story wherupon the listener would respond with some awful pun. Always ended with Bragg saying "Quite!"

That was a good one.
I always liked the Fable that came right after Mr Peabody and his PET BOY Shreman. It always had a pun in it too as I recall, that Mr Peabody would say and his PET BOY Shreman would always respond "Oh Brother."
Thanks

Bullwinkle and Friends, Fractured Fairy Tales (Had the little faiery guy that flew around changing pages and was smashed by the book at the end), Peabody's Improbable History, Dudley Do-Right Of The Mounties, Aesop And Son....
Cartoons were great back then, full of innuendo that no kid would ever "get."
