[C320-list] J105's

[Adam Weiner]

By the way, a good friend of mine races J105's and he indicated they
don't have folding props.  I won't say anything further except to say I
have never beaten a J105.

No prop is better than folding is my new saying.

Thanks Jean-Pierre...for the record I never questioned Adam's math on
this as we can have some fairly strong currents here in New England
(Cape Cod Canal and Woods Hole come to mind) and certainly can
appreciate what the current can do for boat speed--I'm just having fun
with Adam because I'm fairly certain that the 320 that doesn't have the
fixed prop will be faster--including the physics thing around hull speed
:) It's Friday and I'm stuck at work, what can I say....

Regards,

Jon
