[C320-list] 'Spirited Sailing'

[Pat Moriarty]

Well being a lake boat we do not get the swells except from the 50 ft 
cruisers but we get wind and I am talking about San Francisco winds. 
This weekend my wife, 9 lb dog and I did a no current "lake remember" 
7.7knts GPS speed and held 7+ for several minutes at a time. Her only 
complaint was this sure is working my back and arms a lot.  Now think 
lake and we tack more times per day than a boat going to Tahiti does 
in a week. With 30+mph winds and no swell a 320 will go fast but it 
is a handfull at the helm. I think we saw 6.7 wing and wing but with 
30 degree shifts you don' look at the instruments very often.
