I'm not a racer but I wonder if your close hauled performance might haven been improved by moving the main traveler a bit to weather, powering the main a bit more. What do you think?
Thought the same with the main, up to windward and eased a bit for some mainsail twist. Perhaps the jib car back a bit as well, felt that the foresail had too much draft and was configured more for power than speed. Not a racer either. Just like to sail fast.
You guys did well. Nice point of sail on the beam reach’s. Will come back to this video this winter when the snow flies.
