I didn't say I don't go out when it's light... what i was saying is if you want to sail more than 3 months a year here, you need to embrace a few thin...

Sailing in 20-25 or 25-30 is a requirement here (in Chicago) if you want to sail more. In the fall, when the wind shifts (consistently) to the North,...

Life is ironic sometimes... but you need to just roll with it. Tonight, after work the wind picked up to a nice steady 14 kts from the south. I we...

I am here in Chicago. Unfortunately I did not make it out (stupid work!). I have not heard if the nut jobs I sail with did. I have gone on days lik...

Put your crew far enough forward and bear off a little in a nice breeze and they all pitchpole. Nothing like a good Peter Pan. Every cat can pitchp...

if you want comfort... look for a boat with wings. H17... H18 ...Getaway ... some H20s. There are only a couple Nacras that have wings ... like the...

Where do you sail? Who is your crew? The H18 is a beast to sling around the beach alone. A H16 is no problem at all. There are a ton of boats ...

I am in the market for nacra decals. Mummp... Are those the ones Murray's had a while back? Or did you have them made? I just got done priming with...

No ... I think the 5.2 is like 28' the Inter-18 (F-18) is 29'10" or there abouts. I think a 5.7 main will work if it had a boom. If you need a non-...
