Good to see! Still no racing here, and most of the distance races for the season have already been cancelled :( But I did manage to sneak a sail on a very fun boat at our club last night when the skipper wanted a few extra crew for a quick sail at sunset. It's a CM1200, and a very quick boat. At one point we were doing 7 knots with 9-10 knots of wind, and only the main and a #4 blade (he was checking the sail). We then had a wonderful run home doing ~10 knots with his huge 1300 sqft asym, which I got to fly. I was amazed how this boat just slices through the water with virtually no wake at 10 knots. Quite an overwhelming number of control lines though, definitely not for singlehanding! It was just what I needed after 6 weeks of boat projects and no sailing...
