Finally Friday May 30th got P52 back to Lake Sommerville to try out revised sail and telescoping ama.

 

Here's the GPS track of my initial 4 mile excursion, winds are light out of the SSE. Course is more or less counterclockwise

and I saw 8.6 mph early on a broad reach before the wind died down. The downwind run was easy, but winds were light.

First shunt was uneventful but you can see where I drifted quite a bit on the second shunt when the tack slide jammed.

I got better at unjamming slide in subsequent shunts. There was a little lee helm but winds were light.

 

 

Overall first sail went well, but with light winds
