![]() You'd go faster if you didn't luff the mainsail and if you got rid of the wind-up genny and used a hanked-on, 100% jib for a more balanced pull considering the wind speed. Ten years of sailing and you've yet to learn basic sail trim. Pathetic, dude, pathetic! Wilbur Hubbard You can always tells an armchair sailor from the real thing by their silly comments...and Wilbur is certainly sitting in a mighty big chair! Wilbur....does not know why we're periodically (GENTLY!) luffing because he does not know the conditions, destination/course or anything! He doesn't even know the size of the genoa or that Suzanne is playing the helm. He suggests that we get rid of a furling system even though we sail with children 95% of the time. And the dumb comment about the main? We've beat on it for 3 years and it was bought USED! So when will it go???? Hmmmmm? Poor Wilbur further fouls his Depends by ignoring the followup comment that we rolled the genoa and sailed with main alone and is incapable of deducing what that means! Oh yeah! Experts everywhere! We're sailing at 3:00 today...and you can bet a million that poor Wilbur will be posting away while we sail!!!! Doh! RB 35s5 NY |
