you guys don't know what starting fun is until you have a phrf race with mixed Spin boats including a fast 40 ft Cat that doesn't fly spin, but was added just because they are fast in wind over 15. duh ... but take forever to tack, can't really point well, and go dead stop in the middle of the line if they have to slow down for the horn. [fast tack to get behind him even though not favored end.]
Fun part is that on beam reach ... they really move, really faster than you think they can.
