Panu, aren't you sailing a Maxi 999 nowadays? ;-) You were spotted.

Thinking the same. None registered either. We have to come to an agreement. We need participants to make it happen, at the same time it would be silly to make a class of only one FE while all other FEs go for WHC. With the rules Twilight Racing returns money only if they cancel the series of racing...

Re: Akselisinkkien irtoaminen

It happened to me once (so far) - the zinc eroded so much on one side just next to the fitting screw, so the zinc broke open and slid down the shaft. It could had been just one that zinc, but after that I started a habit to replace the zinc every year no matter what. But the zinc is definitely weake...

7 racing evenings = 14 starts. 130/14=9,29 EUR per start. Price does not shock, but those 2 additional hours of motoring Petri was talking about do deliver. ;-)

Nevertheless, I am leaning to Twilight Racing. Who else?

In FE the mainsail trimmer and helmsman are typically the same, hence in most cases the biggest problem is that helmsman is not able to release the sheet due to clamp configuration i.e. whether it is easier to lock or release the sheet especially when heeled heavily and steering from the side. It i...

Mainsail trimmer must stay alert in such conditions to ease the sheet promptly to allow the helmsman to bear away. Also a tight kicker may prevent the bearing away.

Well, as I said I had too little information on what actually happened as I was concentrated on other things, so I trust your words. :-)

Re: Twilight Race 2/2014

I am wondering, how many boats were too early when there was the general recall - 3 or 4? :-)

Re: Twilight Race 2/2014

Subbota ei nostanut vaikka pyysimme. Tämä johtui kuulemma tilan puutteesta, mutta joka kerta kun annoin tilaa, pinnamiehen katse suuntautui linjaan. Rule 16.1: When a right-of-way boat changes course, she shall give the other boat room to keep clear. Initially you were above me and behind, then you...

Re: Twilight Race 1/2014

Toinen lähtö, linja vino rajusti lautakunta-alueelle päin, täydellinen lähtö tulossa mutta Albin-Tuulia lähtee urpoilemaan veneen väliin ja kitisee vielä jotain ettei muka saisi nostattaa. Urpot sitten pakottivat väliin, seurauksena kylkikosketus ja protesti. Tunarit jäivät sitten vielä siihen pääl...
