In this episode my brother and I head up to Lysterfield Lake after work to see how my Moth goes after all these hours of boat work!

Thanks Harrison, did you see your name at the end of the video?

[@harrisonyoung3198]

Are you adjusting the rudder rake when bearing off on a downwind course?

[@TomStuchberySailing-eg9vr]

Yep, the porpoising in the video was caused by slop in the pushrods. Also in this video the pin that holds the tiller in place fell out, so I probably had the rudder AoA changing the whole time as well! Thanks for watching!

Who are you sailing with? Very conservative!

[@TomStuchberySailing-eg9vr]

That’s my brother, he’s fresh out of the OK dinghy but getting the hang of it!

Heavy breathing shows this isn’t just a relaxing boat ride!

I’m still waiting for Ventolin to reach out with a sponsorship deal (written whilst sitting in a fish and chip shop).
