Try getting some sailing instruction and

So you're saying that 25-30 knots of wind should not be called
"challenging?"
Just want to know, cuz every sailing text seems to agree with me on the
term.


Those winds would be challenging for someone with limited sailing
experience, even in fairly well protected waters, such as the LIS. For
some people, 25 - 30 knots is an ordinary day. Try sailing in the LIS
this winter, and you'll gain some perspective. Be sure to take someone
who is experienced.
