Hi all,
these pictures look like typical mossie sailing conditions on the Gippsland Lakes. Pop the kite and hang on and go where the kite takes you no heroics on trapeze just sail deeper,as Tim say's the hulls have reached top speed the only way to go faster is deeper and whatever you do keep both hulls in the water so you have the benefit of the bouyancy of both bows.
You don't have to worry about the mast just do whatever it takes to keep the boat upright, I have had the boat buried to the main beam with the main out and the mast survives.

Steve I generaly don't play the traveller as such just adjust the main to a moderatly twisted position, I have found to much main tension pushes the bows under so always go more twisted than is probably ideal and mainly play the kite. But of course I am short a pair of hands.

Great to see windy photo's on the forum. I know most of ours are always in calm conditions, hard to get people to take photos when boats are rocking and spray everywhere and they are rescuing boats or sailing themselves.

Keep them coming.
Regards Gary.
