light wind sailing

   Yeah....I saw your pics in the nssa website - sitting/standing where you were would be really slow - move much further forwards.

ps I am not a stalker, I was looking st pictures of the csysa team and saw you there!

	In very light winds you follow the wind not necessarily the shifts.
	I don't suffer from insanity...I enjoy every moment of it.

	In very light winds you need to sit very well forward, probably on the floor up against the front bulkhead. You need to let the traveller off so you can ease the boom out over the quarter, and not sheet hard at all. kicker off, cinningham off, outhaul slightly on.
