Our South Aus clubs thrive on above 15kt winds, infact we would hardly sail if we didn't enjoy the better wind. Look up Cape Jaffa wind observations if you don't believe me, it is 15km from where we sail and I used to sail my A class all the time. I named A class because it fit the bill as quick and easy to rig but I also said heaps of other cats fit the bill. Have you ever tried to rig and get your Weta in and out of the water solo in above 20 knot winds? You've got a camera it would be entertaining footage to see, even footage of a Weta on it's beach trailer in 30 knot wind with it's unfurlable fully battened jib would be informative. Weta owners need to stop building the Weta up as a giant killer and just tell it how it really is. It is a great boat for what it is as that video showed.
