Posts: 3,224 Roanoke Island ,N.C. | Way to go Dave and Mike.Pretty work. If you guys are 360 now ,you both must look like black and grey Zhik beach balls. Like waterbug asked How about 380-400 . Could you be competitive at that weight? Not just keeping the boat afloat. Todd

Posts: 126 southern Ontario | We sailed this season at 400lbs (used to sail Stras at 440). Above 15 we were fast upwind and no worries downwind. Medium air, we were equal upwind, sailed hotter downwind to keep up. Light air, we could do OK upwind if we footed a few degrees, but got killed downwind. We are planning on cutting another 20lbs for next year.
