Galveston Bay Rating
In Galveston Bay the 265 rating is 198. We haveonly been racing for about a year, but still tendto come in somewhere around third. I have all new sails, (loose footed main, e.g.) on her which probably makes abig difference for the moment. Boat is kind ofaverage, but the fractional rig means that shemust be sailed like a J24. A lotof extra work needs to be done to the rig:Pole uphaul and downhaul, cunningham, outhauladjustments must be added. Basically the keelreally should be extended another foot. Too much crabbing with the shoal keel.
