[quote=RicardOben]Sailing a boat fast is easy, sailing it well takes years of adjusting the sails, boat trim, tuning the rig and generally learning the boat. How do make the years go by faster, race it. Go to as many regattas as you can, racing one design is very humbling at first. But if you pay attention and watch and learn and listen it make the learning curve shorter and faster.
Even racing locally will not prepare you for the national stage but it will make you a much better sailor. JMHO, YMMV, Richard.[/quote]
