We have now had Serenade on the water for a month, and roughly 50 miles logged. she is a pleasure to sail, either with just the main, or both main and jib (110). we did add a rather spendy mattress topper to the v-berth to make nights aboard nicer. the only problem so far is that reefing the main is a little clunky, mostly because it's just more material than I'm used to.

The folks at our marina are very friendly and helpful, and it turns out there is a sail maker very close who everyone very highly recommended. I'm having him put together a bid for a roller furler, and I hope to make that upgrade soon. It'll mean removing the forestay to have it shortened, so I may miss out on one weekend of sailing. Anyway, just thought I'd post an update.
