All I had sailed before the 29er was toppers, and a bit in radials. It did take me a year to get the hang of it all, a lot of patience, capsises and missed days sailing because of too much wind. Even to this day I would not rate myself too highly in terms of sailing skill. It is just a matter of sticking with it, however you are right there are far easier boats to learn everything on, my point was simply that you can learn in the boat, (it just takes a little longer). I guess I should have explained myself to start with, sorry.

, but the average inexperienced joe who hasnt done a lot of sailing and is just starting to be introduced to this particular area of sailing is probably very unlikely to be as aware as a more experienced sailor. you have to be VERY aware of what it is doing, particularly in light airs, otherwise the hong will just fall over |
