[C320-list] 'Spirited Sailing'

[Kirk McCullough]

Sounds like fun!

It's great to get the boat performing like that. 6.7 wing on wing is 
awesome.Do you use a preventer on the boom?

We don't get flat seas and 30 kts winds very often, but we have done 7.4 a 
number of times in a 1 foot chop and winds around 15-20 kts.
