... boats and their merits ... should we not discuss tactics and technique or has the lee-bow topic put us off such matters??

a good observation- but I guess the answer to your question is affirmative action... post something about tactics and see whether it sparks any interest.

partly because this is the "dinghy development" section.  there is also a technique section and even a "rules" section .. but hardly anyone posts to them.  

could be everyone prefers talking about boats! Wink

Which is something I don't want to read about thank you!

I though someone may say that but this forum is the only section on the whole board that has any activity.

I think people prefer to discuss boats & PYs rather than focus on their own technique and tactics which are actually far more likely to influence their results but you have to face up to that first ...

I think I sail much more because I like boats, being around boats and bimbling with boats than I do because I want to 'achieve' at sport.

I race and I care about the result, for sure, but really it's all about the boat and the pleasure of being out sailing.

If I have a bad day sailing, it's because I've put performance and results first. Mistake, especially as I'll never get to the Olympics, so who really cares if I'm 10,000th or 20,000th behind Ben A.?
