Re: Another Righting Thread!
Ouch thats a bit steep Bill. If i tied a rope to my crew and told them to swim the other way. Would this yeild the same affect as a sea anchor?? This way it is not weight just sitting around waiting for a tip over. Get more use out of it as well.

Re: How NOT to finish a race
Dan....
Thanks for the write up. It was a good time had !!! Thanks for the pic post. Not sure any one would believe it had Carter not documented it. I am not sure this rates as a curse either but hey we were consistent with the boat maker at least. It gave folks some thing to talk about.

We call it a dampener, be it a roll, pitch or yaw. But is not why or how they beat TENZL. Yes the boat was faster ...
