I have a heck of a time upwind with my 38-2 beating those 33’s. Quick upwind and point higher. Downwind we can make some ground up but often not enough to win On Sat, Nov 13, 2021 at 3:39 PM Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > On a rea h a longer waterline boat usually h

Lots of discussion at our club on this as we started the year with set mark racing which to me is fun -sometimes- but there is very little to think about in terms of strategy and tactics. The W/L courses bring that aspect of competition back in and is also a great way to hone boat handling skills

Agree. Went with the hydraulic ram on my 38 and it is excellent and hasn’t been overpowered yet in any conditions On Mon, Apr 19, 2021 at 11:35 AM Don Marlin via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > My 40 had a wheel pilot when I bought it. (ST4000+ and the wheel ring) > It was only useful

It was more about switching to the Harken windward sheeting car. The control lines to position the Lewmar car were in awkward location and often got accidentally tripped - especially in a breeze- the new car will make it easier on my main trimmer Nothing wrong with the Lewmar system other than

I’ve got two snap shackles on the bow for the genoas and with only one in use at a time. we tack the A kite there and do outside jibes. Have for reasons unknown, other than expediency on the race course, done inside jibe which generally results in a trip to the sailmakers for a repair. For long

I went through 2 North 3DL #1 genoas over 6 years. One good year, one average year and one lousy year for each sail. The plastic laminate was a poor product for sure. I bought the North 3DI raw for my #1 & #3 plus mainsail and they are as new after 3 full race seasons. A bit more money but over

We set the pole at pulpit height with the downhaul cleated and it is essentially a sprit. On a short leg in course racing we just use a 2’ tack line as pole setup takes a bit of time. With the pole that low the guy runs inside the lifelines Peter Kirkwood 38 mk2 On Thu, Jan 28, 2021 at 8:10 PM

I have the spar tite and it is a tight fit. They instruct you to use Vaseline as a release agent and no issues have been encountered with taking the mast out On Thu, Jan 21, 2021 at 1:23 AM Randy Stafford via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > The damned things are my nemesis. My 30 MK I
