Just curious - do those conditions favor the 6.0 with their larger jib? As a 6.0 owner, I'm hopeful that Morada stages a comeback!!!


Yes, a broad to tight reach does favor the large jib sloops. As you saw from the first part of this race (to the rock and back) Morada did very well. I would expect them to start moving up now that the fleet has their spins put away. However, as the wind bends back to right as the day warms I'd expect the spins to go back up, and this will not favor the 6.0.
