It is? My boat, like many, has a longer waterline when heeled.


Alberg said that some of his designs sailed fastest with some heel and the
boats gained waterline. The Pearson 30 (not al alberg design) was also
noted
for this. I think dinghy type bottoms like the J30 do best with minimal
heel.

Like a Japanese whore, the J24 goes faster flat.

Let's be fair Nutsy,

A Lite Beer Fart would cause a 15 deg heel in a Pearson. When they got
to
20 deg they were a pretty fast boat

And while we're at it, when you say some heel, what does that tranlate
to in degrees?

Nah, degrees come in bunches of 360:-)

I didn't have the heart to break it him. You had no problem however.

That's some heel!


He appears to be an expert! I'm just awaiting his installation of running
lights before I take him seriously in the least.
