[quote=rattlenhum]And all those boat handling skills (speed, tacking, jibing, sailing higher/lower, being comfortable in tighter places, etc.) that you improve through racing will pay off when daysailing as well. For instance......getting off the water quicker when the weather turns, MOB/rescue situations, or, more importantly.....efficiently getting you home when expected for your mother-in-law's birthday party, thereby averting the inevitable divorce proceedings in which your ex will get custody of the catamaran and post a YouTube video of her smasing it with a sledgehammer just to twist the knife in your back.
