[C320-list] Cracking in sump area and the WingKeel debate

[Stan]

As far as sailing closer to the wind on one tack or the other I found after
checking all physical things I could think of it, occurred to me that maybe
my windpoint was five degrees off.  Really, when you think about it who
could see a 5 degree difference in tacks without electronics.  After taking
the time to align the windpoint the best I can do is 28 degrees apparent on
both tacks.  However, I still sail faster on a port tack.  Now that has to
be the 320 list.
