Sailing Vessel Echo

If you read our last post, you are aware that we are having some issues with our dinghy. Specifically, we have not been able to get it up on a plane. Actually, I am able to get it up when I am alone, but we have difficulty when Mary is aboard. We have decided that the solution would be to provide more power and have obtained a much stronger engine. I am happy to report that multiple test runs with the new engine reveal that the dinghy now performs as expected both single and double handed. Unfortunately, now that we have reliable performance under various conditions, Mary has decided the the dinghy is too small and she is no longer satisfied. More updates to follow…
