Sails very fast...have roller furling Genoa...in one race 17 kts apparent wind did 11kts...I also have a dutchman system for the main and works great...the elec.winche puts it up and then just let it go and it flakes down at the boom...the elec winche works great with the main sheet also. But I do have to say she sails easy thru the water, can''t believe the speed. She is must stronger than the general public thinks.
