Actually found the sweet spot of spinnaker sailing after a few beers. Eileen and I were on the shore drinking when we decided to take the boat out. We were both ready to be aggressive and went for it. We did not really care if we capsized so I was to drive it until she said "uncle". She never did and we were rocking fast that day. I do not know how we did not go over because there was a lot of wind and swell that day. From then on we drove it harder and harder each time we sailed. There does come a point when you have to be able to drive it on the edge and not move the helm. The only way to do this it to know where too far is and not enough. The line it really thin when you find it.

yep, I figure I need to go out after a few beers... but I don't like drinking during the day that much. Hmmmm... spin sailing in a small waterway at night, under spin, drunk... not for me- but too bad I wasn't into this sport 10 years ago <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
