The first boat was launched on Monday 12th March 2007. Although there are inevitable niggles that will need to be ironed out we are exceptionally pleased with how she performs. She was hitting 6.5knots with ease across the wind and has a lovely light feel to the helm.
At the time of writing we have not tested her with the tanks full as we have only had lightish winds. She has also not yet been capsized tested, or rigged with asymmetric spinnaker. We will keep you informed...
Ballast Tanks Full, single handing in a force 3-4.
We have still to gather more data on how she sails, and have yet to try her under outboard power, but she really is very quick and agile on the water, while at the same time very stable. Come and have a test sail as our order book is filling up fast!
