I have had a few sails against the moths at St George. I can sort of hang in with them upwind even if they are foiling, going higher and slower but getting there with the second level boats. But downwind they are twice as fast and I have to wait to be lapped to get another go at them.

Have been playing with battens a lot and have the sail looking much better than at Albury, when there were some hard items installed. I seem to have regained the lost light air speed and height and have found a way to get upwind more comfortably when the wind comes up.

Next Sunday Seth is coming for a sail, and since he is one of our top ICs I should get a better picture as to whether I have improved since racing Hayden.
