| Norcalsailing report featuring Summer Palace:
http://www.norcalsailing.com/entries/2012/06/05/ditchrun2.html#.T-iWoI2Mfqs Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28. "My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton. My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell. So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!! Drew Scott Papillon (most of the time)" |

| Author: scott sorbie ([email protected]) contact the author Subject: Main batten length Info: (14207 views) Posted: Wednesday 3-19-14 11:01:51 AM |
"The length of the upper batten is not restricted, and shall be located a minimum of 5 feet 8-3/8 inches from the top back edge of the headboard down the leech to the bottom of the batten. The two middle battens shall be no longer than 3 feet 6-1/2 inch."
It seems as though the intent of most of the sail rules are minimize expense. But this rule seems to have cost me $, as I now will be buying a new main. Can someone please explain to me the intent of this particular rule? Thanks Scott
