Hi Guys, 1st impressions sailing. Aldebaran 6 hulls are some what different to A5. Rocker location is different, hull cross sections at the 3 measurement points (where the hull measurement templates are placed) are different. Tiller feel had greater weather helm and I am still investigating why. So as Gary suggests it will take a while before I am confident I am sailing A6 to his full potential. I felt quicker but was inconsistent.
Measurement: Thanks to Peter D in making the time Sunday. A6 measures, I was confident he would. I predicted he would be over minimum weight as the ply was thicker/heavier than A5's (bought 18 years ago) and I have made mention of this in the opening post. Numbers? 2kg heavier than I predicted :o, I'll just have to lose 4kg. So work it out laugh

Tortured ply is clearly beautiful.
