This is humor, mostly. I would love to attend some regattas but home/work/ life makes it difficult to even take Wed night off these days.

The tricks range from known to standard in other Classes. Some are in Rick's books. Others are unique to classes/rigs/rules from days gone by. It just that not having a tiller made it really hard to even try them on the Wave. Adding hardware to a sailboat can have unexpected consequences but when the hardware is as basic as a tiller you are pretty much limited to seeing if it some old techniques will now pay off.

You must at least keep up on the vocabulary. Otherwise you risk sounding like a spectator I heard right after the Tornados introduced the "Wild Thing". When she heard some of the boats were doing the Wild Thing on the course she said "but it must be just the mixed crew…, otherwise they are both men…., they're married…., I didn't think they..., IN PUBLIC!" She got really pissed when people started laughing


If anyone needs info drop me a PM.
