Default Hey Donal

The 31 is a shallow draft tender boat that actually require a lot more
effort to sail at its best than the Firsts. It heels and needs the
traveller dropped in gusts or it will round up!

Thanks, Ozzy. As I said, Donal did not know how to trim the boat.
He never mentioned any "gusts." I'm betting he'll claim it was squall now!

Bwahahahahaha!

Well, silly us. We just assumed that there would always be
gusts. I'd love a sailing locality with steady, uniform winds,
rather than funnels, flukes, bounces and reversals of my home
ground. We were just unaware that Donal's cruising grounds were
so uniform. Goodnight all.
