Yup I agree. I was trying to prove to a friend that the light sloop is faster than the war sloop. (Coz I was thinking about ditching my war sloop & buying the light sloop) Me & another friend had a race. I have 4 pts in windcatcher & took my war sloop. He had 1 pt in windcatcher & took his light sloop. GUESS WHO WON.
Pretty embarrassing! The light sloop got sooooo far ahead of me that it went off my map/compass!!!!!! And we did it all unskilled, no fullsail or ramming speed or anything, just relied on windcatcher.
So....having only 1 pt in windcather can outsail pretty much everyone we have also concluded if you are in a light sloop.
