In Response To: Self righting (Frank Vaughan 6.7 153)

I do have information on this topic. We have done extensive testing and have found that a well sailed 6.7 will never beat a poorly sailed 9.1 boat for boat. Conditions would have to be perfect for the 6.7 to beat a 9.1 on corrected time. You dont need to stop lifting your keel, your compitition needs to start lifting their anchor.
