[OGITD]

Good video, great sailing..... thanks!

 

[Frankie-H]

Lots of fun. Thanks for posting.

 

[maxcampbell]

That's better

Link better thanks to OGITD, but still can't get it to go full screen. You're really shifting there. Would like to see some shots of below decks.

Epoxy ply always nice to see. Did you build her yourself?

Good hull colour

but still can't get it to go full screen.

Go to You tube from OGITD's imbedded video. Then you can go full screen from there.

Accommodation (realistic) :
Seating for two, companion steps and next to dagger board.
Bunks for two, one v generous double and a single.
Double orio cooker and unused berth next to it.
Storage under cockpit, size of a coffin, battery is at the end of it
Two tramps to sleep on during the summer.
Easy clean toilet on the rear deck.
Walk on showers on the front bows.

Lovely flat water sailing. From the colour of the water looks to be the East coast.
Did you reef just after the video? I noticed the leeward hull was under water towards the end.

 

[simonfraser]

Leeward ama just riding through a wave, not a prob, less than 10' heel.

5C 17knots apparent wind December, east coast, just off brightlingsea, not the time to get wet so you have to be a bit carefull

Have had her up to 16.5knots VMG on genoa during a summer breeze ........

I reef the code zero, on the vid, down above 12 knots of boat speed as the fittings are not as bullet proof as the main / genoa.

Quite a dose of 'deja vu' and a bit of pining....
