true revisionist history...

The true story:

Katy came home from school one day with a fist full of quarters. Mom asks:
Where did you get those? Katy replies: The boys at school are so enamored
with me that they'll stupidly do anything I ask. I told them to go stand on
their heads and this is what fell out of their pockets.

Katy's Mom; where did you get all those quarters from?

Katy; The boys bet me I couldn't stand on my head for 5 minutes.
Well, I did.

Mom; Oh Katy! Those naughty boys just wanted to see your undies.
Don't you ever do that again.


3 days later, Katy has more quarters than before.
Mom; Katy! I thought I told you not to do that again!

Katy; it's all right Mom, I fooled the boys this time, I didn't have
my undies on.

Always found tacking with a spinnaker pretty easy.


Ah so. That explains the Etchells rule...

We'd let it drape around the forestay as we went thru the breeze while
pulling the pole in.
Immediately after passing head to wind the new brace/guy would be
eased as the sheet was pulled in and the pole pushed out again.


I can see how to do it, in theory. In practice, it has not worked so
well for me. Do you ever have problems with snagging on the spreader
tips? Also, how do you secure your spinnaker clews to the sheets?


Another boat from way back had an assymetric spinnaker that was
attached to the pole.
Gybing and tacking required the mast end of the pole to be removed and
the pole thrown over the forestay and picked up on the other side.
These things always carried kites in light air uphill because the
chute was cut more like a jib than spinnaker...the original screecher
from the 50's


That was a long time ago... and A-sails are still barely catching on
over here...

You need to get a First 33.7.



Can you keep up with a Hunter 336?
I hear they're really fast.


They are!

A first 33.7 is really, really fast. That's much faster than a Hunter, ...
really!
