I have not. While doing this project, I was doing some other concurrent projects that made sailing La Mer impossible. Hoping to get out in the next few weeks to test. Mainly curious as to how the reefing system will work. I'll do a video when I go out.
@@jonspigel7172 Hello Jon. It's a 1980 39' Cavalier, built in New Zealand. I've owned her for three years. I like the Valiant. I did a tour of one earlier last year.
@@talesofgraybeard7964 Just looked up the Cavalier 39 and it looks like a great seagoing sailboat with nice sailing characteristics. Look forward to watching your upcoming episodes.
Nice project... have you had the new configuration tested during some rough conditions...?

Enjoy your videos. What kind of sailboat do you have and what year is it? I’m into year 4 of a refit for my 1982 Valiant 47 which is going well.

@@talesofgraybeard7964 I have owned 3 Valiants over the years. A 1992 Valiant 40 just before they came out with the 42 and a 1998 Valiant 39.
