Edge Maiden

She's had her Maiden. It was quite a short affair but none the less she floats, beats and runs. The corrector weight of approximately 165g or 5.8oz will be positioned just behind the keel box as the bow was just touching the water as the transom was just above.  So all in all her longitudinal balance is just about as expected, especially considering her fin and ballast come from a Lintel which is known for having a lot of bow buoyancy and thus the CoG of the fin is well forward.  Whilst beating her helm was very neutral which is fine as a bit of rig tuning can be adjusted.  Edge's general speed and tacking appeared fast enough but extremely difficult to judge without any comparisons.









Here's a short vid of my son treating the TX and IOM like a PS game!
