Default Hong Kong Sail?

Green with envy you are. You know since I sailed
right by the big list of boats that I'd also sail right
by your slow C&C as well.

Imaging how you'd feel being beating so badly by
a boat you criticize powered by sails you criticize.

Maybe I should not have put up that page on my
website showing the new sails. It sure has made a
lot more people than you green with envy.

Wait til you try sailing with them. The wear will be visible almost immediately.

They set well and pull like a team
of draft horses. I'm very pleased with the purchase. One would
have a very hard time doing any better for the price I paid.


Well, that sure sounds like "damned by faint praise"

Woe be to any and all fools who think they can even keep up
with "Cut the Mustard" anymore. With the new sails and
stiff breezes going to weather I've sailed right by a
Nonsuch 30, a couple Pearson Tritons, a J/24 and
a J/30, a Tartan 30, an Allied Seawind 32 ketch, three or
four ugly Hunters of all sizes, a Morgan IO 28, a Glander Cay,
a Mac26X, a Dufour 30, and an Iroquois Cat to mention a few.


Were they all tied up at the same dock, or was this a mooring field?
