The Fisher 37 rates 300? Wow, that's not bad, that's about half what I'd
have guessed

I wonder if it will actually sail to that rating, and if it includes any
sailing to windward?

Doug, you're really an idiot. I've sailed the 37 and it will go to windward if
it's blowing above 12-13 knots. Not terribly high, but windward it is.
Sail a boat, then comment, moron.
