End for end for sure. Biggest kite you got is the one to use most. the boat is great to weather both high and fast but likes a stiff breeze downwind big triradial 180 percent 3/4 ox is good and steer to hold power under good luff trim.

Hi Tom The 33-2 is very similar to our Frers 33 in rig size and most everything else. We do end for end. The 33-2 that docks beside us has a pole with a mast end fitting so must do dip pole. Their foredeck person has sailed with us and says he would prefer that the 33-2 had end for end capab

The VacuFlush system looks very attractive from a "please the wife" point of view, but there would be a lot of parts to go wrong or pop a leak. The compost head seems to have a huge advantage in not having even one hose to leak or smell. I think the hardest part might be getting all the male crew

Tom: You will get differing views on end for end or dip pole. Personally, I prefer the dip pole method..maybe that is because I was the bowman on different boats including a 1985 C&C 33 MKII where we only did the dip pole method. Dip pole is especially better in heavier air, by better I

Hope you agree the helmsman and how well he holds the course ddw has a lot to do with mitigating danger during a spin jibe and if done properly there should no be excessive force on the mast end. Essentially the helmsman has to be able to free fly the kite ddw during the jibe until the contacts at

Thanks, Kevin. I've been to LaPush, but not by boat. I'd see it as a desperation stop for a sailboat - seems very shoal. But maybe that's just me. On my first trip, we did end up going into Greys Harbor (Westport) due to fuel concerns. Seemed to take forever to get through the bar. On Wed,
