Center, Univ. of Texas at Austin Lines: 4 Can anyone give me some pointers on how to get my sailboat to point better? Recutting my old baggy sails would help but isn't economically feasable. I'm getting frustrated, there's this couple in their mid-seventies who beat me almost every race, partly because they outpoint me by 5 degrees.
