Wolfy is a Chihuahua owned by my Australian friend Mark and an enthusiastic crew member on his classic Wanderer dinghy.
Mark is very attached to Wolfy and will often say that he worries about him falling out if the boat heels over too far. Some might say that this is an excuse for a 'wuss-like' attitude close-hauling. There is of course no truth to this sort of nonsense.
On a recent excursion to the sands of East head, Wolfy was seen to leap from the bow of the Wanderer and see off a Great Dane. Mark says that small dogs know no fear because they don't realise they are small. Interesting theory.
