I was trying to say that racing these F16 boats, that are every bit as sensitive to weight placement as an A-cat, will wear any crew out more rapidly then the N20's or F18's. That has also been the experience from F18 crews that sailed on my boat. Now, that is fine for bouy racing and single day distance racing, but is PROBABLY also a significant discriminating factor for the week long slug that is the Tybee 500.

So if you want me to write :



Then that is fine, no argument from me, as long as you do realize what that comment still encloses.

Ohh and the rougth conditions that the Tybee and Worrell races got over the years are pretty standard operating conditions where I sail. That is with maybe excepting the swell, but the chop we get here makes up for that.
