Hi,

I dont think Wharram designs with speed in mind, so you should not expect to much from your Tiki 21.

If you want a faster boat, perhaps you could consider a different design ?

If not, good sails always helps. A larger rig is the standard answer for light air performance. But then you would be overpowered in the heavy stuff and need to reef earlier. Also, the Tiki is designed for the rig you have got, so be careful with new solutions..


If you want to get radical, you could consider contacting Dave Culp at http://www.kiteship.com. He will probably reccomend a kite based solution both up and downwind.
