Looks like you had fun. Can't wait to get to Fla and the warmer weather year round. Looks like you need to sheet the main in more downwind with the kite. Just like going to weather, once I learned this I went a LOT faster.
Amazing how much apparent wind the kite makes.

Telltails were pulling nicely; put too much tension on and it stalls; gets lots of heel and it feels fast but it's not.

You can see from this pic that the trailing edges of the Spi and Mainsail are similar. This is fast IMO.
