[Public-List] Reversing the A-30

Try when reversing - once in motion backwards putting into forward gear and
running 'forward' using tiller for steering when still going backwards. With
spinning when going forward, at low speed, put tiller completely over then
rev and back off - it should turn nicely

<<<<<<I've heard of that sort of thing.  My feeling is that full keeled
yachts are
'less maneauvreable' than fin keeled yachts only when they are handled by
sailors who aren't used to them.   Any full keeled yacht with a prop in an
aperture can be made to spin in its own length by use of rudder and engine.
Fin keeled yachts have made people lazy and forget how to handle their
boats.
Do I sound like I'm getting on a high horse?  I guess so! Sorry.

All right, Gord, I'll admit it. I can't back up Linnet worth a damn. Care to
expand on your comment with some instruction?
