[C320-list] Heaving To

[Adam Weiner]

I have found the sea conditions matter more than wind in heaving to on
the 320.  In larger seas the boat gets pushed around from the stern
putting it into a different wind angle.

  I like using the maneuver to have lunch or just kick back for a while.
I've had two full keel boat before and they really spoil you. (but slow)
I was wondering if anyone has this worked out. Let say in winds about
10-15+ mph. Does it worked better with a reef main and a 90* jib? And
how does it change when the wind gets up to 25-35 mph? etc. Mahalo John
