And as most Pocket-captains discover the ship can a be a bit leeward.
I sailed the new configuration and it it performs much better in my opinion. What a comfort: such a stability, easy en better turning in tacking. The boat now almost sails itself. What a ship! Just sail and trim a bit here and there.

I’ll keep you updated
