That was lake Winnipesaukee, water temp 49. Sat around all day Saturday with no wind, it filled in just before sunset for 45 min of good sailing. I got on the boat with life jacket, no harness and no wet suit.
One interesting thing, with the rocker in the hull design the bow is really up in light air sailing solo. With the Spinnaker and flying the hull, while sitting on the windward hull I was getting wet from the leeward hull bow slapping the water, as if riding up on top of it. This was in flat water, 8 or 10 knot breeze. For years sailing a Nacra 6.0 and 5.5 who's designs cut through the water rather then ride up on top this was interesting. Is this faster? not sure. I think this design will be challenging to figure out what technique is fast.
Yes Tim, the girls will be on the boat soon. I am sure before long they will be pointing out how I overstood the layline or am stalling the main.
