I have had my son (age 12) with me & got a hull flying. Do you have water in your boat? |

Yup in big winds I am wedged under the tiller. No water in the hulls...least not very much. |

Some said it took 20+wind to fly Hull. I can fly with less wind than that |

My boat is a 97...so maybe my sail is just blown out. It looks good, and is still a lil crisp. But maybe I am missing some potential power. |
