You attract a mate with interior light on and passenger window a few inches down isn't it?
Needs to sail more...

I dunno, I could chat with Severn Trent... they had a spate of chasing doggers off site after hours a while ago.   Well that was the official line, I've also heard it was kite surfers breaking inland use rules (doggers being more socially acceptable trespassers softened the story and kept the Rugby Chapter of the Daily Wail Readers Association from investigating)

Anyway it appears that it wasn't so much I was making ground to windward, but just not losing to leeward... hence the perception of windward climb.

Interesting... mind playing tricks I guess... either that, or it was a tidal lee bow  LOL

It was another Solo Maxi... really, why would I choose a solo if it weren't for the other folks sailing them?

Why am I not surprised that some folk on here know how to initiate a 'dogging' session.

Very good boat for what it's intended use is. Lots of people spent a lot of hours enjoying their sailing in them, which is what it's all about
