I always felt the boat was working more than it needed to going to windward in 25+ winds, and even when cracked off a little. I didn't feel it was unsafe, exactly, but just not pointing well, had too much heel, etc. I could balalnce the helm nicely by... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (lakandjc) http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/7235 Mon, 28 Apr 2008 10:09:05 GMT http://catalina42discussionforum.yuku.com/reply/7234/t/cat-42-cutter-rigs-.html#reply-7234
