Damn!!!!
 
Another in a long series of lies and exaggerations!

You're right. My friend didn't really hate the mid-boom sheeting. He just felt
that it didn't invite constant tweaking and certainly promoted poor trim for
singlehanding.

Off the wind we touched 11 knots and wasn't we weren't ideally trimmed.


And then you woke up and changed the sheets.

Jeff, if you think a J30 or C&C 32 can't best 10 knots in 25-30 knots, I'd be
happy to take you for a sail. Hell, we made 9 knots in the Catalina 27 downwind
a few times!


I think you need to get your knotmeter fixed. What does it read when
you're sitting at the dock? 7kts?

Knotmeter showed better than 12 knots a few times. GPS fluxuated between 9 and
10.5.

Knotmeter showed better than 12 knots a few times in our slip.
GPS fluxuated between 9 and 10.5 in the matrix.

C&C has always offered the option of having the traveler installed on the
bridge deck instead of the coach roof for real sailors.

And I was only crewing on a boat that always finished in the top 3 usually 1st
in the toughest J30 fleet in the Country.
