I'd have to agree with Steve. I know, I live there. There isn't much that is bent toward "tourists" who don't keep their boat there. Only 2-3 restaurants on the waterfront, and only 1 that may have free dockage for those eating there. That being said, it's an excellent home-base and place to ra

How do you jibe this setup? Do you have to attach a guy during the jibe? That sounds tricky! My boat is new to me and came with an asymmetric chute that doesn't measure well for PHRF - it's pretty small, yet I'm penalized for it on the rating. Any former racers out there have a functional symmet

Definitely End for End is faster, but only if the Helm remembers that the ForeDeck Union is in control at that point. That applies for both End for End and Dip Pole. The only difference is that with Dip pole, the Foredeck Union can recover because the guy isn't loaded until the foredeck person s

The speed at which one does a gybe all depends on the efficiency of the crew. That said, those who do end for end will tell you that end for end is faster than dip pole, and visa versa. I started doing dip pole gybes on my previous boat, an Ericson 2-30 (1000 square foot spinnaker). I still do g
