It Floats! Lunatic Fringe - i550 Sailboat

The i550 Lunatic Fringe was officially christened and launched today. We had hoped to also go sailing but there was no wind to take a test sail. The forecast is for more wind tomorrow ....

  2. Thanks for the kind words. We did take a sail last night but still very light winds. Enough wind to tack a couple times and to put up the spinnaker but not windy enough to really get a feel for the boat. I was pleased with our light air performance, though. The forecast for today is for winds of 10-15 mph so wee are going to try again.
