This appears to be in Washington State, USA, to save anyone else who's never heard of it. Though I'm curious as to why one of the names on the web site has an Iowa address. Does he really go 1500 miles to the sea, when Lake Michigan is only 300 miles away? Andy |

Yes,
In fact the hard trick is going to "leeward" fast. Mind bender: To slow down, you turn down wind and let the boat slow to wind speed.
