Thanks for the response Guys. I have purchased Equinox. Found the Perko=20
latch but no door.
They will be assigning a rating to the boat up here in Nova Scotia next=20
week. Since it is -25 degrees C I won't be sailing anytime soon. I notice=
=20
the ratings vary a bit by area from 108 to 114. How do you guys feel about=
=20
your rating and what is fair? My observation from outside the area is that=
=20
where the boats race or raced one-design they are rated slightly faster=20
since they are competing against similar boats they are probably better=20
tuned then when they race PHRF they do better, where there aren't as many=
=20
they don't do as well and the rating is slower. Correct?
I also notice there a couple of boats with higher rigs around Long Island a=
s=20
I recall.
Anyway, I'll be on my own up here racing in with wide cross section of
boats=20
so any racing/tuning information would be appreciated.
May need a headstay and foil/furler as the one I have has been broken, any=
=20
suggestions. Also a mainsail cover to get started.
