After many projects,she hit the water yesterday.It was a perfectly warm and breezy afternoon.She handled better than expected in the conditions maybe 10 -15 with a few higher gusts.Very stable and dry boat.Just some occasional spray over the bow.Might try reefing the main next time in those conditions but I am happy with this boats handling.WooHoo!:dance:

That's Oliver my first mate.It was his first day sailing and he didn't seem to mind.He'll be out again but in lighter air.His ears were flapping in the breeze.

You've got to have a boat dog! They never really get fully used to the boat's heeling. Penny usually likes to stand at the stern and look aft when the boat starts heeling. Just put a PFD on him just in case he goes over the side and he'll be OK.
