Oh, yes. With you, it was funny in a good way and with Ariel in a bad way.

I have reloaded the track from another source. The first couple of hundreds of meters after mark 4 (S mark at Rysäkari) is what forced us to tack to STBD and go left - you can see how the track bends towards Rysäkari while Charlotta's track just a little bit more to the left is better. Well, we coul...

The crew yesterday was Masha, Anna, Patrik, and I. We came to the starting area relatively early and eyewitnessed 14 kts NW wind with gusts up to 20 kts. We questioned the spinnaker use, but the trend was easing, so we agreed to postpone the decision until the start. The sailplan was then full main ...

The day X is coming. It seems we still have the 36-footer in the class.

Subbota is in. I can take a couple of people into the practical training routine. Can also do a seminar or two, if needed. Only English, sorry. But for the majority of university students, English should not be a problem.

So, the boats start according to their FR? Since nowadays almost every boat has a unique FR - no "styyra", "nousee" and "prkl" during the friendly prestart routine?

2023 Helsingin Regatta - 17.-18.6.2023.

Finn Express 83 - 0,8337 (0,16% faster or less favourable) Finn Express 83 Evo - 0,8415 (0,98% slower) H-vene - 0,8169 (0,37% slower) FE83 vs. H-vene in 2022 - 0,8324/0,8199 = 1,015245761678253 (45 seconds per hour) FE83 vs. H-vene in 2023 - 0,8337/0,8169 = 1,020565552699229 (60 seconds per hour)

Just a change of club from a outboard fishing boat club to a sailing club, that´s all. Membership in a "fishing club" (please don't tell my commodore :D) never stopped me from racing. :lol: But is that Meritie race worth looking at? Is it a good race track and demanding competition, or ju...

It is true, old aluminium doesn't weld well.

KLV:n tiistaikilpailut

Melissa - 1/15

Hangöregattan

Tove - 9/16, 5/16, DNC.

If the boat is a Finn Express 83 - that rig is from Selden. There are detailed Selden catalogs, you should be able to find the spreaders by dimensions.

One FE83 has replaced her mast just recently - they might have spare spreaders, too. Another option is to weld the cracks.
