Default Fantastic Sailing again!

Sorry Booby, just yesterday you were ranting about the ratings "in
your
area" and that ratings for others didn't count.



In MOST areas, the 35s5 WK rates 129. In MOST areas the Nonsuch rates
156.
Now you found the exceptions and want to make it the rule. Doesn't
work that way, Jeff. And as I said, YRA of the LIS rates my boat at
126, a tough rating to sail to unless my boat was in perfect tune and
crewed by very seasoned people. If I wanted to race in something as
childish as PHRF, I'd rather race aboard a Catalina 30 or Pearson 33,
boats that can be sailed to their ratings by an average group.
My trolls, my rules!


Nonsuch: When getting there first is second, better late than never
aboard a Nonsuch 36!

PDQ: When the beauty and romance of sailing has been replaced by
brittle bones and liver spots, it's time for the PDQ experience!


BWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA!!! My last post until tonight, Jeff....gotta run
for a sail with Thomas on a J. He's gonna love it!
