Jeff,

You say 25 knots is more like a jog in the park and 35 is survival

and then you say it's no big deal. 25 knots is 21 mph sustained. It's a

force 6
wind. In a cruising boat, you should be in harnesses and reefed. In a

dinghy
you shouldn't go out at all. I'm not saying it can't be fun, but don't

make it
sound like it's a normal sailing experience. To use your own words, It's

a jog
in the park.

I think your math needs a second look. 25 knots is roughly 29 mph.
