I heard an Inter 20 sweep for line honors, with Rick Bliss, Jim Galloway, and Doug Kirby in 1-3rd. Don't know corrected, but the H16s probably did very well. The early quick-trip reach was looking good, but the 15 knot east wind went south and light just as the leaders got under the bridge, and getting through the harbor was tough as the wind died and filled. It did pick up to double trap again for the ride home, but out of the south, with some nasty swells in the bay.

No worries, the F16 group will just adopt the H16 into its ranks and become the dominant class.

Then the'll talk about how the "new" F16's can "run with" a N20 while jib-reaching.

They have to have something to talk about afterall.

OK let me re phase it then.
The N20 class was the largest class to registrar, start and finish the required course.

The Wouter comment cut me real deep

So why does Sandy Hook score them as the largest class... They can't count?

Hey Keith....

Who's that Jack Kennedy character?

Mark



Apparently a man of many identities. He changes names as quickly as he moves from one trap to the other on a tack. Great skill at dropping his chute, rumor has it he's quite the "Lady's Man", drives a fast car, and is capable of breaking an Inter-20 boom with his naughty bits.

That probably has something to do with how many boats finished.
It was a light wind year with bad current, not the best situation for the smaller boats.

Now I remember... Isn't he the guy in the photo in Catsailor swimming in the water between a bridge and an N20 trying to prevent the 20 from spearing the bridge? Yes... he does have a certain style!

I would probably believe everything but the Lady's Man part.... From what I have heard... that is just a dream!

I know Jack Kennedy... He is no Jack Kennedy!

Awhh.. I figured you would go ballistic over the use of weight correction factors for calculating the Portsmouth overall win so that second to the beach corrects into first overall!

I am sure you have something to say about this. No?

Yeah, I saw it. The horse is well dead, is it not?

Weight corrector mods (H#) for an N20... man that's just wrong.
