Last season I posted a message lamenting my miserable performance on the race course and seeking some advice.  I sailed 80 seconds off my rating last season.  I did the bottom as suggested, bought a flex-a-fold three bladed prop and a new head sail.  I have yet to install the adjustable backstay set up I got from Garhauer.  I am happy to say that I just took 3 bullets out of 3 races in the clubs annual regatta and am doing very well in the weekly series as well.  Thanks for the advice.

Thanks, Mark, and congratulations.

Always good to hear good news, and obtain positive feedback.

Keep up the good work (and have fun doing it!).
