SB US147 Drake58 NP Hornet 8.2. A quick after school session out with Setve before the chores started. Quite patchy at the start but filled in to green arrows up to 26knts. Yep a bit of a handful but i managed ok for the time that i was out there. A few nice long runs towards Abbey boat ramp abd then towards the yacht club. This kit is becoming familiar now. More DH and adj OH working well. Fingers crossed tof a session tomorrow. West Busselton, WA, AU

Ahhhhh so sneaky Dave's tactic worked tonight.......

I went out late, chasing the wake of the esteemed team leader, he's trailing in my blind spot on a long reach past abbey boat ramp...

I gybe..... no Dave ...... MIA..........

Sailing....looking for drowning sailor.......no cigar,missing sailor reports flashing through my mind in the offshore conditions

 

then I see him hitting the beach heading for the washdown and figure something bad has happened, so I change tack, come in to find out whats damaged etc........................nothing...... needed to go home apparently    ha ha ha     so he beat me by 3 km????   Nice trick old man!!!!!!!! lol Surprised

if your speed during the gybe falls below your minimum set speed it will not register as an alpha on KA72
