Default Sail Trim?

Tut tut.... it's 25 to 30 Celsius..... sunny and hot as heck. Visibility
is great and the rum only improves my vision to super human standards.....
why, when I drink enough of it I can see things out of the visual range of
those afflicted with chronic sobriety. ;-D

The last time I saw that many boats in one place was the Tall Ships
gathering in Halifax harbour. I sailed in with some of the Tall Ships from
40 miles out to what looked like a forest of white triangles. They estimated
over 2 thousand ships in the harbour that day sailing. It was fun for the
weekend ... but I wouldn't want to do that on a regular basis like Ganz
does. The marinas were stacked 3 deep to the outside slips and they were
using free slips while the owners were out. It was a mass confusion of
boats... luckily I still had membership at the Armdale Yacht Club and could
use a friend's slip since his boat was on the hard for repairs at the time.

No sir... I like my current location and the privacy it affords me.
