Tim,
You need to read better. I said the top speed of winds that I sailed in
was 15 knots. I've checked my grammar, and that's what I said. I'm not
immune to gramatical error, despite my PhD in English and my 35 years
of college teaching. But I try to be careful..

Top speed ONLY 15 kn! Man, you ARE a rock star!
That's probably exceeding hull speed by 2.5X and not easy to maintain on
a displacement hull design!
Best I ever saw on the Evelyn was 13.8 and that was with the Too Big
Kite up in a puffy little squall. Chris D was there
I think.
Over 10kn in the Hunter I'd be nervous as a red fox in a beagle bin.
15 kn in a Hunter, I salute you!!!

unless maybe it was Hunter's Child?????

three of them in fact, and they did, in fact, sail well in the winds I
had them in, top speed only 15 knots.
