(machine translated in 2021) Bit of rainy day, but a lot of wind, so just the first test for my Dr.X 4.7

(machine translated in 2023) When placing my fin put too much force and made a crack near the screw. First time with my new Dr.X 4.7. Trimming was very disappointing, seemed to have no power at all. Fortunately, a few more people were sailing with Dr.X sails. Got a tip to grab the smaller boom anyway, there was 7cm or so left. |

(machine translated in 2023) Now with a smaller boom and some help with trimming it went a lot better. |
