Default Passed the Nonsuch

Hey, Jeff...while on a broad reach and after we passed the NS 36 with
only a mainsail, this Freedom passed us both....

Later on, flying our headsail, we caught up...but not easily!

That guy's almost as dumb as you are. A broad reach and he's running
wing and wing? Doh! Most people only go wing and wind when they're
running.

That's a Freedom 39... a cat-schooner. Long time ago, Brian Grant was
a regular poster here, he had one.

Depends on the wind angle. At some point, the main is going to start
blanketing the foresail... before DDW... that's the angle to switch to
WnW.

What an idiot you are. The Freedom is yet another boat you know
nothing about. You don't have to be DDW for that trim, dumbass!
