Kittrina - A 1991, Corsair F-27 trimaran sailing off Booby Island in the channel between St.Kitts & Nevis whizzing along in light winds.

I am the one in the middle wearing sun rash shirt, snood and a Tllley hat.



Dropped snood down for picture.

Quite a lot of twist in your main there, Rum Pirate. Have you got leech telltales?
On board the good ship Chiara

Battened mainsail, no leach teltailes.
However will be installing 4 purchase kicker (vang).

This was only my fifth sail on it.

Learning lots of things each time.

Did somebody mention small?

Traveller down, sheet on. We never had a vang on ours, but we bought the boat with an extended curved traveller. Put some telltales on the leech, they’ll guide you on twist far better than a picture.

A while ago but I love her none the less. My first and still only boat, ‘Karisma’, a 2001 Hanse 301. She changed my life the first day I owned her, 12 years later I’m onboard tonight drinking rum and I celebrate every moment with her.

Indeed... I latched onto the request for small...

Small models of the boat they're actually on... needing their own lee cloths..



And a quick sail around the marina..



Until a more racy boat appeared

I guess the model needs a bit more canvaswork and solar panels adding (to match the real life one)..

You look well reefed.
No white caps.
What was the rough wind speed?
