Sue if you are so worried about 1 kg difference then I would suggest racing sail boats may not be for you, you are going to be so uptight about my boat being 5 kgs lighter than yours that you won't want to compete with me just in case I beat you over the water.
One could almost say your argument is a womans way of thinking as I'm sure that you are going to conveniantly forget that I'm probably 25kgs heavier over all if you take into account my lardy frame.
Get over it people, this is a real world we live in, we ain't ever going to be able to race on a perfectly equal overall weight as it simply will never happen. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
I am not going to get into this debate again as you already know my views and we could not have another sailor agree with Macca..... However the above comment is a bit rich. Guess sailing is not for all the rock stars as they care about an extra kg or 5 on their boats.
