Forecast : 20 knots, gusts hitting 25 knots.
Reality : I ended up rigging the 8.4m2 Vapor on the 125 litres tabou Manta 79 with 43cm fin. Dumber ...
Positif about it: I only used the 8.4m2 2 or 3 times, so I could put some time into the trimming and tuning today.
At last I had the sail there where I wanted it. The 8.4m2 gives a lot of power, more than the 7.6m2. The 7,6m2 is without a doubt a high end sail, and the 8.4 is more low end orientated.
GT31 display shows 74 km distance, 54.5 max speed and 53.5 km/hr best run.
