Reply to: First big wind in the Nacra 5.0

[quote=MN3]things i have learned: 20 - 25 is wild and hairy.. bows go under the water fast ... mistakes are more dangerous, rigging is much more stressed (I de-masted in 20 knots yesterday. My halyard/turnbuckle snapped), any more air than that is survival mode sheet in, travel out... all the way if you need to.. every degree you travel out is a degree less you can point so adjust the traveler ass needed during tacks... if you are very overpowered.. remove the jib.. if you aren't overpowered.. keep the jib if you can.. you will steer/tack better (hopefully) the bigger air... the more extreme the weather helm will feel, all the more reason to work out the adjustments in normal or medium air<!-- editby --><em>edited by: andrewscott, Sep 28, 2009 - 10:44 PM</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
