Re: [harryproa] video of visionary

G'day,
 
Not as whippy as it looks, but could be stiffer, I agree.  The sail also needs a bit of work.  With a bit more cunningham, the sail would have pre bent the mast which would have stiffened it some.
 
The bow is not very high, so always looks pressed.   Need to compare it to a tri lee hull rather than a cat.   This boat ended up a bit heavier than the design which doesn't help either.   
 
Keep the comments coming.  Hopefully the video will be up on the web page again soon.
 
regards,
 
Rob

Subject: [harryproa] video of visionary

Hello ,I was watching the video of the visionary sail, sweet looking
boat. But I have a few questions? The mast looks very whippy or flexing
alot with the sail ? Also the bow seemed to be almost over powered? or
riding very low in the water for the sea state and wind strength? Just
curious.
