And Glen, please tell us: are these tests done on "RUTU"? Is that
beautiful chunk of plastic and cedar actually finished and in the
BVIs?

Or was this done on a reasonable fascimile boat?

I wish. This was on a Beneteau 505 bareboat charter. I was in need of
some motivation for the final stages of building. If I keep my A** in
gear this Fall and Winter RUTU will be in the water by next summer.

I hear you. My engine's in pieces in the garage while I slave at a
desk this year. Argh.
