Do you have any tips to make my boat faster?

Why do you want to faster?


So you stop picking on me.



1) Untie the dock lines


Won't it float away?


2) get a folding prop
3) Get new sails or have old ones recut


OK, maybe next year.


4) Install tracks for better sheeting angles
5) Clean bottom and remove wax from hull


Do keep bottom clean.


6) mark shaft log so you can alighn bladed with keel


I've got a big 3 blade prop. Great for backing.


7) Refine your trim habits


Too lazy.


8) Lose weight


Yes, Mom.
