the latitude interview: horangic family

A sistership to 'Liladhoc', with waterskiers behind. The Horangics have had their cat to 15 knots in fl at water and 23 knots coming down a wave.

late at night the strobe lights and blasting music started.

Helen: Fortunately, the mosque makes them stop 15 minutes before sunrise for prayers.

Basil: That sends everyone out of the disco at about 4:15 a.m. — at which point they head for the after-hours places.

Teddy: You get no sleep.

Basil: I think our best historical fi nd was Lasos, which is a little north of Bodrum. It was a full Greek town, but now there is nobody there and they only get six visitors a year. We loved it and spent a week there.

Teddy: We saw amazing mosaics and paintings. I spent an hour on the Internet looking for a map of the place so I'd know my way around.

Caroline: It was a great experience for the kids to be there and do their own research. 38: Do you kids scuba dive?

Teddy: Well, our younger brother has to go with dad.

Basil, Jr: I can go, but my dad has to be in the water, too.

Basil: We brought all the scuba gear, and it's great for boat maintenance. But if we were to do this over again, I'd just bring scuba gear for one person. You can rent scuba gear anywhere, and a hookah on a tank is better for boat work. But make no mistake, being able to check things underwater on your boat is something that makes life easier. 38: Where did you get scuba certifi cation?

Caroline: Basil was thinking we'd do it at Monterey, but I wasn't happy with that idea because it's so cold and murky. He got certifi ed at Monterey, but the rest of us got certifi ed at Bodrum where the conditions were much nicer. 38: When did you kids learn to kiteboard?

Teddy: At Union Island. It's a great place to learn.

Helen: We had tried to learn at Coyote Point, but the water was cold and murky, and there were big waves. But at Union Island, whoa, the conditions were perfect — good wind and fl at, clear, warm water. Within a week we were all up on the boards.

Teddy: I can go upwind, downwind, and jump a bit. Clear and warm water is wonderful.
