On a beam reach (say 100 degrees true) - 90 degrees apparent -- 6 knot breeze

The Tartan 40 and you should be doing over 4 knots in a reasonably flat and current free seaway? It's not acceptable is you're getting between here and there for whatever, but...

I ADMIT FREELY, that if I'm just putzing around for an hour or so, getting the chute up and down alone is probably not worth the effort. It's just because I'm just lazy ;^)
