IACC Boat speed at 30 degrees heel?
DSK wrote: Anyway, long narrow boats like the IACC class and the old 12s too tend to sail at higher angles of heel than more normally proportioned boats. I still think 30 degrees is a bit of an overstatement. Nav wrote: Wot only a 'bit' now is it? Just yesterday you rubbished it! Doug, lots of boats are only fully powered up at 30 (or more) degrees heel. OK, I am still not sure what you mean by "powered up." It sounds to me like you are relishing the feeling of heeling too much. It's fun, but it's really not fast. Wrong again. Look at the references. Cheers |
