IACC Boat speed at 30 degrees heel?
I see. I expected more from you.

Cheers Scott Vernon wrote: he he, I still chuckle at the picture of them bailing out the boat with their cedar bucket.  Scotty "Thom Stewart" wrote in message ... Nav, Really!! You're not being fair calling those "Solo around the world" boats mono's. Their beams are so wide and their draft so shallow that they are Cats built in one piece and designed to sail with more than half the hull flying. They were just about as bad as the Kiwi POS used for the cup defense. Their failure rate in that last so called race wound up being for survival and not for speed! Ole Thom |
