Frame from video, yesterday.

Looks like a good 9 kts.

6.0 It only surfs downwind.


What's with that forward rail?? Looks alwful funky up forward.

Yeah, it is not very pretty above the waterline. The pullpit is inside
the forestay. Handy to sit in the hatch and clip on to change
jibs.The plastic pipe does not help the looks either but at least I
can see it without glasses! I put my effort into fixing the keel and a
few other things when it broke the box and started swinging like a
pendulum. I'll worry about cosmetics later.
Time for bed.. Cheers.
