Sail power calculator

Just found this link and thought it may be handy for some of you;
Sail Power Calculator
When we say it's BIG RED SEASON, we don't mean a big red blood stain on the bay,
GET YOUR LIGHTS ON + YOUR PFD'S.

Happy Sailing Fishing and keep blowing bubbles.
Cheers

Don't worry, I could not make a lot of sense of it either, hence the comment "may be handy for some of you". Definitely not me.
