Sailing characterisitcs When I used the boat on the baltic-sea at 6 bft.,sometime comming up to 7/8 bft. (which are 60 km up to 70/80 km, that should be 34 knt. up to 44 knt.) it was impossible to hold course withthe boat because of weather helm an going to oneside.There is an dutch rewiev in here (at about 3 reviews before) who told that he shortend the mast and alterd the main sail, took the boom downin order to make the boat better for strong wind.Did anyone make the same experience.
