True that, but how many big Tri's race buoys? I don't know if the French do that or just go for speed.

Still, I'm sure Ellen could teach these mono-clowns a thing or two about sailing big Tri's. I'm sure she's had to do more than a few quick bear-offs, alone, at night, in the big ocean. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
