Hi Dwight, Please reread Sam's message before getting out the pitchforks. He said 7 or 8, in the puffs. I would not characterize puffs as regular... On a prairie lake I think his experience is quite achievable in hot summer conditions when all you want to do is sail fast, course be damned.

what do you mean by 7kn to 8kn regularly? If you mean 7 knots or 8 knots through the water or over the ground with a CC 26 I would say you should be a race winner every time on corrected time; that is really fast for a CC 26 even on a beam reach and I got a feeling you would probably leave my 35
