On Saturday we finished our Fall Series - raced against a J-24, a Catalina 30, a Soling 27 and a Cal 24-1. We had winds of 23K with gusts to 35K. Ran a single-reefed main and a 110 - and took a 2nd and a 1st to win the Series. But were we worn out...

Rick - there were three crew (one more than usual) and myself at the helm. They were hiked out as far as was possible and still stay legal!

Mike - we re-rated the C25TRFK this year, from 222 to 225. The Soling 27 rates 150, the C30 176, the J-24 174 and the Cal 25-1 is 222.
How do these compare with ratings in your neck of the woods?
