Re: [bolger] Re: pics from first PDRacer (bolger brick)

Just a nit, but (according to "Sail It Flat," the bible of Sunfish racing)
there never was a Sunfish with as little as the official 70 sq. ft. The
early sails had 90 and the later ones were 95.

Shorty,

Thanks for the pictures. Interesting mix of sail rigs. I'm amazed
at the Sunfish rig...at times the 59 sq. ft. rig on my Brick was a
bit much, but I can't imagine trying it with 70 sq. ft.

I like the spirit of the event.
