Quite frankly, I'm not impressed with the better performance of a chute on a C25 over using a poled-out 155% genoa. (That will probably start another discussion...)

It depends on the course Derek...

Duane - sorry but I'm confused (my usual condition<img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>) Can you explain your comment? Either you're beating or "running" or beam reaching - I can carry a poled out genoa on a beam reach (if I choose to) and downwind. So can a chute...so why does the course make a difference?
Help!!!
Derek
