By the way, I have been armchair sailing since I started on this list. The
information and MOST :) of the commentary has been great. I have learned a
lot by just listening that will help greatly once I finally get into the
water. One thing I would like to have is a description of how to use the
150% Genoa I bought. How do you come about/Jibe with such a big sail
hanging out front? It seems to be that I would need to partially furl the
Jenny, with CDI furler, pull it around and unfurl once on the new tack, but
I am usually wrong about these things.
If some one wants to walk me through both coming about and Jibing with a
good description of the process, that would help complete my arm chair
experience and give me an idea of what to expect once on the water.

Hmmm, I could go for that.
But that would get us up to a total of 5-1/2 boats. Will you guys also

up for the fine I get when the zoning compliance officer gets on my case for
running a boatyard in my backyard? <grin>
