Default Foul Weather Sailing

Sorry Oz I'm not impressed by this. The righting moment curves (Macsurf
hahahhahahaha) show that he has no idea about stability. That he should
publish such a blatently incorrect curve is astonishing. His experince
is no doubt limited to fair weather -the fact that he considers a
sinusoidal wave system shows that. I maintain that a cat will roll if
caught beam on to serious gray beard. That is why your *only* optioin is
to run off.

Cheers MC


Absolutely correct. How does the yacht generate a positive righting moment
during a condition of negative stability? His piece is hopelessly biased.
