| Training: 30/10/2016 - Sailing a Hobie 16 one-up Its been 4 weeks since putting the furling jib on the Hobie 16 and this is my appraisal. Basically this is an enhancing technology not a disruptive technology.
Week 1 25 - 30 knots 2 foot wind chop. Didn't get the furler working properly on the first attempt while rigging single handed in a 25 knot 30 knot on shore breeze, went ok on the water until some righting practice and my fitness called an end to the day.
Week 2 Glam 18 - 20 knot Noréaster. Fun fun fun. no problems in three races Big loose on a speed run afterwards! More righting practice!
Week 3 15 knot variable southerly. Rigged one hole further back things just keep getting better.
Week 4 5- 15 knot gradient Noréaster shifty and patchy. Boat performed best yet. ...Read More |
