Re: Virtual Sailing!
Could be sail selection. Most of us use the free sails, the ones you can use without purchasing the extra sail package. Right now that consists of the jib, code zero, and the medium spinnaker. This way we keep it free and everyone pretty much has the same sail configuration. My boat's name is Habaga...

Re: Virtual Sailing!
It has been a painful couple of days. Sailed into a low pressure and you caught the stronger winds below me. Not enough distance and time to recapture my lead. Well played, well played!

Re: Virtual Sailing!
Some fun virtual racing, primarily sailors from fleet 1 but it would be nice to have other virtual boats out there. Remember, it is free to join. And you can join anytime, even in the middle of a leg. If you do, you will be put towards the last half of the pack but this just gives you an opportunity...
