Crew Weight

I am 180 and John is 200lbs ?. We have three AC Blades racing uni here weekly, and one T 4.9 but he doesn't count in this comparison. So far I'm very happy with my rig. I have yet to get out in breeze above 16 with it and if I'm unable to settle the boat down at that point I'll dial in a little more.

We just wrapped up a regatta this weekend where we had John's and my boat on the same course. I was uni and John had Noah the supercrew weighing in at 100lbs. Conditions consisted of some lighter 6 kt stuff with the majority being 8 to 12 with puffs into maybe the 16 kt range. I was able to de-power in all conditions and the boat ran real good. I was also able to power up when it came time to shift gears. John may have been lacking some power in the lighter breeze. Hopefully he'll chime in with his thoughts.


Still hazey after all these beers.
