I LIKE A CUTTER FOR CRUISING BECAUSE OF THE NUMBER OF SAIL
COMBINATIONS. FOR OUR CRUISE TO THE SOUTH PACIFIC I ADDED ANOTHER
HEAD STAY ABOUT 1/3 THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE HEAD STAY AND THE STAYSAIL
STAY. THIS ALLOWED A GENNY AND A YANKEE AS WELL AS THE STAYSAIL
TO BE HOOKED ON AT ALL TIMES SO SAIL CHANGING WAS MUCH EASIER AND
NOT PUT-OFF.

RE:.1 by LAGUNA::MILLMAN_JA IS THE WIND BLOWING A STORM OUT THERE or why are you shouting? Lower case is MUCH nicer on the eyes! Except for when you DO WANT TO SHOUT! Phil | |||||

Phil your right.....maybe its the west coast mentality - but i don't
have my own terminal and every time i sit down at one the upper
case is always locked. At my age the eyes tend to not notice these
things......
