Joys of sailing
yeah, jim, sure.
I usually don't take part in the Mac bashing since I really don't care but your comment needs to be addressed. We passed one today on the way to Baltimore. Now bear in mind the wind was blowing 12-15 and the Mac driver was on a close reach the same as us. Easy and fast point of sail. Beautiful day. He wasn't moving! His sails seemed to be trimmed correctly. He wasn't moving! We turned around and he dropped his genny and started motoring. I fail to see how this boat is "responsive and fun to sail" The day was a '10' and he wasn't moving! S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster" "Trains are a winter sport" If he had his sails trimmed properly and his keel adjusted properly, he would be moving. And I don't know which Mac boat he was sailing. Obviously, I don't know what the circumstances were in your anecdote. But I do know that anecdotes don't prove anything, Loco. Jim |
