Are you still claiming that you are sailing in "Heavy" airs?


Nope...but I am putting on airs.

We had gusts to 30...and some guy named Dave claimed 5 until I posted
local weather reports.
It's been a drubbing of these poor saplings ever since. I'm afraid
you're late to the game, but I can squeeze you in!

Thanks! I'd hate to miss out!

Why are people getting excited about 30 Kt gusts?
Are you under the impression that a 30Kt gust would be a challenge for a
sailor?
