Default removing old names?

Five hundredths of a point - BIG DEAL.

I knew I'd not be able to slip that one by you but
note how the brilliant Oz was snookered.

But you forgot one important factor with respect
to self righting. When you have much more sail
area in the water and wet your boat will not self
right as easily as it would if you had less. Sails are
not considered in the above ration.

Therefore, since my boat has smaller sails it will
actually be better at self-righting than your boat.

So there. Blalallalalalalalalalal!

Oh Good Grief......

Ha ha Ha Ha Ha.......

Just one point Cappy.... the cut-off for self righting momentum is 2.0....
the lower the number the better the chance of self righting.
