Timm's Courses

Very strange. I sent my note below yesterday afternoon, and it just showed up. Either I hit the end of the Internet, of yesterday's heavy thunderstorms in our area knocked out some critical power. Still curious about the mutinies.

The back stay was at ~2,000# and my new Dyneema main halyard was on just hard enough to remove the wrinkles.. so we were a max flat trim settings... except for the sheet, which was relaxed just off the spreaders. We purchased the sail for the Van Isle 360 race as a onetime use sail. There is so much tacking in that race, that I did not expect the sail to survive the race. It did. Here is the finish of one leg, ~10 knots of wind, against 6 knots of current, we performed over 60 tacks to get across the line. http://www.vanisle360.com/index.php?p=2_45_2011-RACE-VIDEOS shows the pin getting set at the finish.
