CruisingDad, I think you're mistaking this thread for the Fair Weather Sailor thread... I am not a fan of Sea
Anchors, but I am a fan of the Jordan Series Drogue.

Not affiliated with them at all, but think they're probably making the best of all the heavy weather safety gear for slowing the boat down.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
