I've done a lot of these lately, so I'm going to let David take this one (including the advice)... Two reefs in the main and genoa.... that was our sportiest test for a while and a nice bumpy sea to add to the mix. Great sail! I'm super proud of Pippa today. Close hauled isnβt her thing, but did like a champ... although I'm sure the Vodka and Coke helped π₯ππ Top tip.... Less heeling = faster boat speed. Basically, heeling too much will result in weather helm and going sideways rather than forward direction. Simple as that!
