- This is an edited lap, and I know there is plenty of work to do to improve our game! The near miss after the start was resolved over a pint at the club afterwards!! :) The B14 is an awesome boat, get one...
I hope the other guys bought the beer as you were on starboard.
Yes we had a beer and a laugh in the bar...
Can you not install a retrieval line for the kite - taking it down by hand looks tedious and unsexy?
The B14 is a little old school, we use a bag just like the 18 foot skiffs the B14 is based on. There are advantages - the sail gets less wear by not being pulled through a chute. With practice, the drop gets faster- this is a few years ago now in our first season in the class...
@@MrMctavish91 I'd love one of these boats but i can't find one anywhere. I want to get my wife on the water but trapezing scares her so this would be the answer.
@@fedup3449 they're a great boat, well behaved, but can still be very exciting and a handful in a breeze. The work done by the crew is significant!
