I love the corn field in the background!

Great rigging instructions: got to the boat this weekend at LEHYC and felt very comfortable about where everything was, how to rig it and how to work it. Wonderful explanation on this video! Wish I spent more with the tuning guide, but their was no substitute for rocking this boat in person for a weekend with winds in the high-teens, gusts to mid-20s. This is the Porsche 911 of sailing dinghies

No better job than mess about with boats!

How do you attach the floatation device to the main (to prevent turtling)?
