Maiden Voyage On Fontana: From O'Connor Wooden Boats

This is the first sail on Fontana, a Jewell design from Francois Vivier. We were pleasantly surprised just how fast she was even before we had fully tuned the sails.
The wind was very gusty so we were cautious and used the first reef.
Fontana sailed like a dream, fast and light on the helm, we found she likes to heel a little in light air.

Paul, who built your sails? The main looks really nice.

+EdithHead Hill sails in Perth made the sails, Graham hill did a really great job on them
