So i now have about 50+ hrs sailing a laser this year and I'm starting to feel better about my upwind speed. But I'm still awful downwind.
I picked up Dick Tillman's "The Complete Book of Laser Sailing" 2nd ed a few weeks ago and found two absolute gems in the interviews in the back of the book. The article by Luther Carpenter and the one right before it finally gave me some concrete techniques for catching a wave and when and why sailing by the lee is useful.
Loking forward to being very wet this fall as I try to master these ideas!
