[bolger] Re: mj knockdowns - wind speed
Chucj,
Do you mean to say that the E.U. is now providing Him wind specifications?
Maybe they could do something with our tornados and hurricanes...;-}

didn't help - perhaps if the board was up she would have slid across the
water surface - but it was too late - perhaps in very windy conditions the
board should only be down part way. You make me wonder tho' if a narrower
leeboard would act differently - being more easy to pivot around. My sea
pearl leeboards are only about 12 inches wide. Steve

Hi all,
Perhaps there was a gust, which can be up to 66% of the steady wind speed
according to standards used in England. Could a forty mile per hour gust
just have pushed you over. Perhaps a gust in addition to one of the other
suggestions, ie. triping over a submerged tree, lake bottom, etc.
