[C320-list] Racing handicap

[Karl Krueger]

Hello:

I have a fin keel and folding prop and my spinnaker rating is 159 and jib &
main (JAM) fleet is 179 and sail on Lake Michigan.  Good sails, clean
bottom & clean air are very important.  And I do agree, our boat are quick
but need to be kept more upright.  Healing maybe fun and feel fast but it
is not fast with our design hulls.
