Trip length:
1 day
Type of watercraft:
Sail
A sail across the channel to the mostly without tidal current Willoughby Bay. There I dropped anchor and noted the sailing at anchor tendencies of my Nonsuch 30. Then, I put up the Riding Sail I recently made to see the difference. It seems to be doing it's job and cut the wandering back and forth by more than half. It was interesting to watch the spoiler block the airflow to one wing as the boat moved off the wind and the other filled with air to bring us back. More testing to come.
