Hi All,

Nice post!

A word about ' us port layline' types.

It is wonderful thing that a Uni lays the top mark in 2 tacks.....[ which is why we are on port tack]

..when the I-20's,Tornadoes, P19MX's and N5.8's [ down here] do it in 3 [4,5,..] tacks....[ mostly, they are away back when I round, except for the I-20, which can go fast upwind]



.....the traffic at the top mark is the mono fleet that started before us. [ which is moving the best they can, ie, slooooooow, however, all rules still apply]

Last comment;

What age is considered ' old guy' ?

[ I'm 53..

...6 time H 16{current} Champ Kiki Figueroa is in his 40's, at St. Thomas Rolex last month, his H-16(non-spin) beat a Spin Tornado{DPN},...imagine that..]

..go sailing,...have some fun!
