The Mission 2007, not really much wind, a lot of bobbing. But the prediction was less so a fall. The Sunday not sailed due to illness.
Because of the light wind (none) I wanted to sail all heats with the Klepper. During the entry/adjustment, only everyone was planning, and so was I. But that goes so slowly with the Klepper that I decided to take the HTS anyway, if we can plan. With the HTS I just didn't run any altitude at all and I was way too late at the start. The whole field was already over the start when I passed the boat. But because I could get half wind to the first buoy, I had a lot more sail pressure than the others that went very well to the first buoy and I was able to plan to overtake half the field before the first buoy. After that it was mainly pumping and I was not overtaken: 12th. The 2nd heat the wind was back so with the HTS on the water. The wind completely disappeared just before the start. Last minute decided to go back quickly for the Klepper. 4 minutes before the start I was ready again. Good start, 4th over the line. To the first buoy planned by a couple of men overtaken. 10th to the first buoy. Someone fell there and I was 9th. I managed to keep that up until the Finish because the Formula boards didn't even pump with 9.0+ in Plane (fortunately). Good choice the Klepper.

Klepper in combination with the 8.5 only just works. Vin doesn't actually pull it. With the sword unfolded, it was a good height. But plans very slowly. |

The HTS ran, even with the Drop no height, had put too little trim on the 8.5 which made it work poorly. Boom lower, mast foot forward and a little more trim on the 8.5. Now he ran a little better, but wind was really minimal. Sometimes with bobbing the nose stabbed underwater, stupid stupid stupid. |
