bout your rating and what is fair?=A0 My observation from outside the area =
is that where the boats race or raced one-design they are rated slightly fa=

they don't do as well and the rating is slower. Correct?

I also notice there a=A0couple of boats with higher rigs around Long Island=
as I recall.=A0=20

Anyway, I'll be on my own up here racing in with wide cross section of boat=
