My Boat is....
Ugh ......... we don't know that. What rig is in the boat? What keel?
There's about a 25 second per mile difference between those boats
depending on what it has.
Tall rig with wing, currently rated 120 in his area. Most tall rigs had
the deep keel. I expect a rating around 123 or 125 here. He's owned
both versions and found the wing is faster on some tacks and showed a
tiny pointing deficit. Downwind, the wing is slower. Then again I'm
getting a boat with a inventory of mylar sails that you'd never own.
They're recent, rated between 8 & 9 by the local loft and cost just
under 10K (genoa, jib and main) in 2003. The dacron stuff aboard is
also in very good shape and the spin is new. Sorry, Loco. She's going
to be a lot of fun. And boat for boat I'll pass any Depress 30 of
course! Then, back at the slip I'll flip on the theatre system, emjoy
the cool AC and watch the sun go down...on the 20 inch LCD TV!!! Good
times for us and of course we could care less about racing...just out
for some fun sailing on a comfortable boat...with a swim platform, huge
cockpit and beautiful interior! Fun, fun, fun!
And it's KILLING YOU!!!! I think it already knocked a few years off
Scotty's sad life. Good night, sad little boy with the sad little 30
footer!
