Nutsy'

Reached hishest speed on a reach with a 15 deg heel

Are you saying it wouldn't have gone faster at a 12deg heel? Did you
try? Did you have crew high siding to get the 15 deg?

Nutsy, Shaw designed hulls to stiffen at 15 deg approx. but they didn't
become stable at that heel. They had to be ballasted to hold 15 degs.

Think about what you're saying! I've seen to many P30's sailing with
high side rail meat. By the way, Nutsy, that also goes for the C&C
