AFTER the race I definitively TESTED it. A minimum difference of 6 seconds was expected - more I wouldn't have complained about. But ZERO seconds means they have completely disabled windcatcher now, for no reason whatsoever. Hopefully, it is just a simple mistake somewhere along the way.

Yes yes, I seen the 'testing' part and the whole '6 seconds' part.. but that still doesnt explain the facts that took place today
(Thats why I didn't disput your findings - just presented the ones we encountered today during the race
)
SwashII and myself know for a fact (well you were there referee! LOL
) that his 1 extra point on WC made him get to Cut just a bit quicker on the Toug stretch... even after he had to do that course correction he still managed to pass me again just before cut and we both know he wasnt using Ramming or Full Sail
Its the only explaination (ok, maybe he was puffing intot he sails harderr than I was LOL!!!
But not likely... and I didn't see an extra sail on his War Sloop either
)
Tomorrow I'll run a test also and see what I get, and I'll let ya know what I find
