You keep making this claim, but the fact is the average wind in your
area is stronger than most parts of the country.



Jeff, with all due respect, are you claiming that the LIS has higher
winds during the sailing season? Average winds might be high if you
count January and February, but the July August period can be
downright dead. This has been a good year so far, but I have friends
who went to the Jersey Shore because winds here were too light for
their Tartan 37 and Pearson Wanderer. In fact we had a fellow with a
Triton who left our club two weeks ago for that reason and I think
we've been hit by good winds this season. That's because I bought a
vessel perfect for these local conditions.
I love full keel boats, but at least a 3rd of the time I see them here
they are under power and for good reason.
