But when I race in large boats, especially blue water racing, I prefer crew. Adequately crewed boats sail better than short-handed boats. Sailing, even racing, is art. It all depends how far you want to pursue your art... the way I look at it.Doc Häagen-Dazshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00577427442824705257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018205427973265951.post-63994480598073590202011-07-07T17:28:47.273-07:002011-07-07T17:28:47.273-07:00I hate it when work gets in the way!

You have to wake up and go on deck to change sails. No stinking computer program to do it for you. More of a gamble. Good luck with your new life.Contiguoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03258841580097904553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3018205427973265951.post-33713192636092112272011-07-06T22:39:56.938-07:002011-07-06T22:39:56.938-07:00Yeah, I miss all of you Virtual Racers, Contig.
