[Rhodes22-list] Speed fix

[jimtracyjohnston at centurytel.net]

Hank,
      Thanks for the response. Yes, I have read several articles on 
sail boats that exceed the measured wind speed. Of course, I was amazed 
at what I thought was impossible. DAH. I'm NOT a good sailor but if I 
am out on the lake and I see another sailboat I try to catch and pass 
the "competition". One O'Day-22 has been out on the lake several times 
and it appears my Rhodes is faster. I really don't know if a Rhodes is 
fast or not. It really helps that the other boats don't know they are 
in a race. Jim
