Will Palo ALto do?

I sailed my 9'6" ASD Course Board with a new 7.5 NOA. Well powered the
whole time and had loads of fun. Those sails sure are amazing....They
jibe well and yet handle gusts and being wound up like a race sail. Not
as good in Lulls so you have to bear off a bit sooner to keep the
shape/power up.

Strange to see snow on the mountain peaks (Mt Hamilton) while sailing
but when I missed jibes, my bear feet sure knew it!

ASD epoxy: 8'8" & 9' RKT & 9'6" no-nose CS, F2 Xantos285
Wt 230#, Ht. 6'0"
