Re read the rules. One pump per wave applies to downwind sailing. What you’re doing upwind is call propulsion rule 42. You will eventually get thrown out by an on water judge for this. I’d also protest you for propulsion. A judge will see your leach flicker and will see that from a mile away. It’s illegal
Mike, any chance you can let me sail with you on the Melges 15? I am actually looking at buying one. HMU
I think we could work something out. I’m located in Sarasota.
What’s up with all the upwind pumping?? That looks illegal.

It’s not illegal, it’s reacting to puffs and kinetic boat handling.
