Yesterday, I found myself, my wife, and my two young children, sailing downwind in the East Santa Barbara channel in a state of frenzi. I am a brand new owner of a 361 2002 and trying to figure out how to aquire balance down-wind, with a six foot wind wave off the quarter in a 35 knot breeze. No matter how much reefwas applied to the main, I could not establish lee helm. I was told before I purchased the boat that it was "tender," and I was also told that becauseof the beamie transom, it would preform excellent downwind...which is it? Was it the quarter swell turnning me up, or my lack of sail knowlege?
