Meh, I don't really like match racing anyway. Outridge lost it on the start - though I didn't see who had the preferred side into the box. Once...

It was surprising to me at least, how quickly the Australian team recovered from the poor start in race 5. Against even Outridge, who was the...

Given that Slingsby and Outridge have way more time on the boats than anyone else, its not really that suprising those are the two leading boats, is...

Aussies really kicked arse! Even with a shocking start in race 5, giving away about a 20 second lead, they were back in front by the bottom gate! ...

Was great fun to watch today, especially once the breeze kicked in a bit for the second and third races. Will be back out there again tomorrow...

If they lift like that in 6 - 7 knots wind, what will they do in a normal sailing breeze of 20 knots or so. The prospect would be frightening. Well,...

Hi Puck Sorry about my very loose usage of the word database. Of course what I mean is the paper list of hull numbers, boat names and owners etc....

Hi Keith, sorry to hear about your computer issues. Where did you get the Catalac database from ? I have two (very old) paper issues of the...

Thanks for this info, they could easily have replied this to me themselves... I was unaware they were a different company now...

Arun that made the original sails certainly would have had that data, but that company went under and as far as I know the new company has no real...

I forgot to mention I contacted Arun sails inquiring about this last week as I read somewhere they were the sailmakers that delivered the original ...
