time your tender box will be faster is in the 3-10 kt wind range on a
flat sound or lake... if I'm not motor sailing.
Joe, you must be joking with this 10 knots business. Boats like a 35s5
or an Express 30 or a J35 or even my friend's slow Tayana will be
faster than your boat in MOST conditions.
Wrong.
Look Rob,
See what I'm pointing at?

Thats one fast hull, shaped like that fastest fish in the sea. In all
conditions over 10 kts and 2 ft ....your 35s5 would fall off behind the
horizon in no time.
Joe
In steep seas with 30 knots
or more, you have the go to boat.
Well yeah....
But that's not how most of us...not you either....are sailing,
Famous last words of many I'm sure.
now is
it?
Using you motor isn't sailing,
If my sails are up and pushing, I'm sailing.
but if you want to go that route, my
Dinghy is faster than your boat as well.
Sorry, my Dink is faster with the 15 hp merc on it. And faster sailing
than your pop-a-boat.
