... dragging my everything I could in the water...

Not to say that it wasn't the effective and prudent thing to do at the time, but dragging a leg (or almost anything else) in an attempt to slow down could run you afoul of rule 42.1. "Except when permitted in rule 42.3 or 45, a boat shall compete by using only the wind and water to increase, maintain or decrease her speed".

Regards,
Eric

interesting, but my everything was just a joke, the spray was from nothing more than a a very fast rudder stall during a bear away, and maybe the goat I was dragging....

Well, rrs 42.3(e) allows "A boat may reduce speed by repeatedly moving her helm". I don't see anything in the rules about goats specifically...

Think about the women and children and those of us with delicate sensibilities when you talk about your poo and goats. I'm scared for life!

Geez, Dave, I hope you aren't talking about me, because I have no delicate sensibilities. I have been living with indelicate and profane men for 40 years now, and I am totally desensitized. Unfortunately. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />


And, by the way, I have mentioned to Rick several times that we need to get a goat. That is TRUE!

I could SWEAR I've heard Rick referred to as an "Old Goat"
Altho I would never say anything like that myself.

As everyone knows I am a new guy with a nacra 5.2. Can you tell me the website or the location of the race? I would like to go to it next year.

The way you talk about it sounds great.
