  • The Barba Roja has never looked or sailed better

Test sail on the Barba Roja with all the new goodies. Fresh main & headsails and a new suite of B&G instruments. Blowing in the upper range of the headsail's limits but we decided to try our luck anyway. The boat has picked up about 5 degrees to windward and accelerates like never before. Took a quick tour around the river basin and up into the harbor so a friend could take some pictures. Shame the boat has all the goodies now that I have a new ride for the season...
