I'm an ex-Shark 24 sailor. I learned to sail on a Shark. It was always
nice to get a strong downwind breeze in the middle of a race and surf
through the entire fleet!! However, this has to be one of the worst
light air boats I've ever been on. There are some (used to be anyway)
excellent Shark sailors sailing out of the Kingston Yacht club in
Kingston, Ontario.

BTW John (or any other Shark sailors) how many rudders have you broken
on your Shark? We went through 3 in 8 years.
