jeffies, go to amazon.com and check out the books. you wanna convince yourself
that no way in hell can you die on a two-huller and are likely to die on a mono, go ahead. but for god's sakes STOP telling that to newbee's. they might believe you and injure themselves following your advice. now, about a cat need LESS wind force to tilt each and every next degree right up to the time it gets to about 30* tilt when it turns turtle, well that is a fact of physics (remember your claim to have an associate's degree in liberal arts physics?) Read what you said - its totally false. You claim to have graduated from high school, but its looking doubtful. And its all meaningless, since you haven't produced a single case of a cruising cat capsizing. "JAXAshby" wrote in message ... In fact, *each* degree of heel on a cat requires _less_ wind than the previous degree of heel. cat turn upside down at heel anglesof about 30*. Totally wrong. You should read what you wrote very carefully. come on, jeffies. you *claim* to have an associates degree in liberal arts physics. that mean you *claim* to under the dynamics of wind againt a sail and how lever stability decreases as the lever grows shorter (due to the cat tipping, as in heeling). you also *claim* to understand what "end-plate effect" means, and most assuredly you *claim* to know that a cat has that huge wind sail (the tramp, deck, and house) exposed as it tilts. |
