Yes agree Miller
Rigged my 5m and wished I rigged my 4.5m or even 4m
In winds like that Id usually have my old 4.2m

GR / Windy...where were you sailing today?

I was out at Metts and it was only 18-23k.

Plenty out back, but as usual I was struggling on the inside

Then again I gotta drop a few kilo's

Sailing in the waves always reminds me of that. Speedsailing I can convince myself the extra ballast is OK
