Mike:I have circumnavigatede and have used all the big three. Monitor,Aries and Flemming...The best was Monitor: one can easily fix it at sea... Flemming: Good but not great

HR35 Rasmus close hauled sailing

You seem to have plenty of experience with this boat. I have always found it difficult to sail close to the wind with my Rasmus 35. Have you noticed the same? Do you have developed any tricks?Much appreciate the response.Alexis
