Driving
on the Beach
Instructor Geoff Mackay blazes down the Mexican Beach in his convertible
hummer. Sand rooster-tails fly into the air as his students watch
him aim for a large wave hitting the beach. The military style vehicle
slows and Geoff is slammed into his seatbelt as we hear the engine
rev-up to maximum RPM's. MacKay's vehicle tears through the sand
and water like a knife through butter as he spins out into a perfect
180 degree turn in order to head back to the staging area.
As Geoff Mackay slides to a stop in front of some 30 students he
stands up in the front seat and says,"Never slow down in deep
sand! If you don't keep your momentum and get stuck you can have
fun digging out your own vehicle! Lesson number 1!" The class
applauds as he orders them to the class room. Nobody has an attention-getter
like Geoff Mackay.
