Killer "B" Race version Bluenose Sloop Sunk in 80km winds
Dear Dr. Crash: I am having second thoughts about my open cockpit race version Bluenose Sloop. I know Roue' is Canada's most respected yacht designer and the yacht was originally designed with an open cockpit, but the McVay version self draining cockpit one that I also own made it through the 40 knot winds while the former did not.
What should I do? Stop sailing in winds past 25 knots? I can hear my Nova Scotia cousins growling at the thought as I type these very words.

View from "Bowdoin" 71' mast
Fun photo and great view taken by one of the Maine Maritime students aboard the "Bowdoin" during the Portland Yacht Club dock party. He graciously climbed the 71' mast and photographed the members using my camera who were cheering him on!
