Re: Tacking,
Welcome to CF AirborneSF! I'm sure you'll find that you are getting a bit of a lift and that this is the preferred tack!

Welcome aboard.

Re: Tacking,
I own a older 'C&C', no 'kite' for me. Thanks, all, I would like at some point in time to do some cruising, just taking 'baby' steps now.
