...that the guy survived it? LOL I bet my small sail that
he "went for a drink".
BTW, I am looking at getting some equipment. In
other words I NEED A BIGGER SAIL!!!!!!! Yet, don't
wanna spend a lot of bucks. Gee, I finally got the
old BIC Melody to plane in 10 or less knots winds with
a 6.4 sail on. I figure that I would be planing
big time if I could put on an 8.0, at least in
the lighter winds. Question...why does the board
show a tendency to turn down wind (as you sail on a reach)
when it lifts off of the water as you start planing?
