They sailed the Mills (blue track) around Pelee Island ~70 miles and -yes- the first three legs can be on the same board, but that is only half the race. ''the same board''? Does that mean the same tack? Sorry, never heard that expression before. Scotty |

There's an expression 'taking long & short boards' for tacking up a channel that you can *almost* make on one tack, but have to take a few short tacks to clear in between long intervals. DSK |
