Posts: 1,253 Columbia South Carolina, USA | There is another thread going on in the Open forum that brought up a question for me. Im new to the A having stepped down(I say stepped down with tongue in cheek) from a N20 and then F18, but was wondering what the Uni sailors enjoyed more...Triangle courses, W/L or some of both? The abcac course sounds real good to me right now.
Opinions please?

Posts: 12 Norfolk-VA Beach, VA, USA | Hey Guys,
I am not much of a racer but we have a couple of local long distance races that are great (e.g. Labor Day VA Beach, Duck Cup, NC).
I love Long Distance since it takes me a while to dial it in.
However, there is nothing better that screaming on an A-cat (dialed in on any point of sail) and still having to go several nautical miles before rounding something.
I am also impress how well it handles rough water conditions. I had a few wild rides.
Cheers, Waldo A3, VA Beach
