Bonaire Lac Bay. Sailworks Retro 7.5, iSonic 107, Black Project FreeDeltaRE 21. Wind: 15 kts

Good workout. The Easter crowd left so the beach was calm and quiet and I shared 'my' part of the bay with two other sailors.

To satisfy the geek in me, I decided I needed a metric to track improvement (if any). I arrived at a form of efficiency metric where the nominal wind speed is subtracted from the GPSTC numbers so that increased wind isn't the only contributing factor to improved numbers. Below is a graph of this metric for the 5x10 values. Per this chart, I have improved. I included two trend lines (linear and 6th order) to make improvement (or not) easier to see.

Hood River Waterfront Park

Gusty afternoon, felt like huey had a fit of sneezing. Had to time the runs as the water is still 44F and the air around 49F so didn't fancy any swimming. Set the EVO6 6.4 on a NP RDM mast and did some tuning, light and responsive with good speed. Will be a good combo for the summer.

Good turnout team, spring has sprung and we're all itching to get out on the water. Should be a big month in April with the speed brethren congregating in Hatteras for a week of Vmax!
