A fine example of handicap racing eliminates the boat factor and puts
it all
on the crew.


Ohhhhhh....I see!!!
So please explain this: When we sailed the 35s5 in St. Petersburg we
were able to pass a Catalina 34, Pearson 39 and and quite a few other
nice boats....with JUST OUR MAIN UP!!! Everyone was on a reach most of
the time. I must be a GREAT sailor or the 35s5 is got some balls.

More likely, you're just a liar. That's what you usually admit in the
end.


Also: When we sailed the 35s5 out of Oyster Bay winds were puffing
between 3, 4 and 8 knots. The 35s5 never faultered and touched 5 knots
at times! We passed everything except for a First 36.7 and a big C&C of
some type. Either I'm a great sailor or the 35s5 has some balls!

More likely, you're just a liar. That's what you usually admit in the

Maybe it's just that everyone else can't sail their boats in heavy or
light air. They have no feel for it.
Yeah...that's it!

More likely, you're just a liar. That's what you usually admit in the
