I bought Nick Craig's book. He is quite clear that if you are not planing you should soak. Of course you can almost always plane if you point up high enough but I guess once you are more than about forty degrees above DDW
you won't be gaining anything except in a boat with a huge spinnaker. I suppose this answers my question? Hurrah!
