It sails

Sawdust & Soot has now sailed twice. It seems to fly easilly and goes faster than Karma at least downwind. Found a leak needing a repair, fixed but have had a week away in the country before sailing gets started properly. Now all ready for tomorrow's first StGeorge club race, under the management of Manly skiff club, do not ask, its a long story and its not really over yet.

Next project is to modify the fin case on Karma to suit a Mach2 foil set for Chris Dey. He has borrowed my boat and purchased some M2 foils in preparation for a Belmont return to moth racing.

Time to build a wing?, probably not this year. Maybe next winter. Some discussion on a few blogs and M2 forum currently, seems to show weak support for a restriction on wings?

Have a look and post an opinion, not here.
