I received a post from one of the member,maeng. his question is "I thought body weight plays an important role in sailing, other than that, it's a sport that Asians generally stands a better chance against Caucasians. " my answers :
Asians had done well in the smaller boats such as the Optimist and Laser Byte. Yes for the heavier boats like the standard laser, the Caucasians had done consistently better than the asians. Asians generally has smaller physique but if we can match the caucasians weight for weight, then the competitive edge will be the skills level.
