It's a waste of gas, but it does get you home faster. Not a problem with nearly all daysailors. I used to tow 16 foot scows regularly. Racers who had the wind die. Scows are somewhat interesting, by the way. The A scows are 38 foot and 1850 lbs. They can do at least 25 under sail. All the scows have twin rudders, pretty rare for monohulls.
