No, Donal, I said what I said. My top speeds that day were 7.5 kn
dead down wind, in the lee of Sandy Hook, wing and wing in a calm sea
in 18kn apparent.
8.2 kn close reaching in 4 to 6' beam seas, 26 kn apparent.

Well, Marc...hope for some good wind Sunday and maybe we'll see 9 knots...or
at least 7!
Miserable and rainy here today with plenty of thunder. We're heading out anyway
at 6:00 to get some work done on the plumbing...something's funky with the main
pump for the sink/shower.
Donal's doing the best he can. He's a Beneteau owner.
