But my real question is still this: Are you guys ever out in conditions where you personally, after applying your best effort and technique from years of cat sailing, find that you simply can't tack and have to jibe instead? Are there indeed "tackless" days or conditions?
Firstly, agree with Robi, if it is this rough, don't go out. I usually have the opposite worry, gybing in the really big stuff is much scarier that tacking.....
