[C320-list] fin vs. wing keel

[pat reynolds]

Hey Karl , They initially gave me the furling credit until I told them that it came with the production boat and then they took it away.  According to LMPHRF that credit only applies to boats adding furling later.  Then this year they reduced everybody's jam rating by at least 3 seconds also.  They don't seem to be quick about explaining their actions

Hey Guys:

On Lake Michigan you are also getting credit for furling head sail which
helps greatly when competing with race equipped boats.
