Have been getting a bunch of different opinions lately. Looking for input on ideal crew weight. What has been found to work well and what is the high limit?

 Bill, the more wind, the more weight. Nobody knows what the "Ideal" weight is yet... the boats are too new and most of the teams weight about the same...around 310-340. Nobody has sailed it in 25 knots with 400 lbs. that I know of. I can tell you that with 340 in 15 knots of wind it felt good, not too sluggish and not over powered. In under 10 knots I sail it solo, that feels great! Tim
