But if you can go faster than those with the D sail by quickly flipping the rudder to port & starboard to minimize the submarining, stick with the C sail and definitely beat the others going to weather.
Nice to hear. Also enjoyed a bit of full size Dinghy sailing many years ago. The beauty with the Toy boats is, you don't get wet and cold when the weathers not so good.
Is it a Laser you have got ? I fix in three different locations depending on which rig I use. Mast for A and B rig, antennae stud location for C rig and lid top for D rig. Was that any help.
@@paulgascoigne374 Hi Paul, First of all is it the Laser you are sailing ?........I use only cheap copy G.Pro as wouldn't want to risk anything too expensive. I could probably do a small picture video of how I do it, if it helps.
@@flyingtonyw Hi there, yes, I am sailing the Laser. I'm trying to put together a video to create more participation in our local group. The camera in the video looks very small, what is the brand? I like the idea of using the antenna hole.
Definitely should use the D sail. Here are the winds each sail is best designed to handle.
A up to 8 mph
B up to 17 mph
C up to 28 mph
D up to 40 mph
Definitely overpowered. Good time for the D sail as other boats had.

Thanks, sometimes nice to test your limitations and stretch yourself.
As former laser sailor, I love to see this... nosediving happens also in real dimension.

Hi how did you fix the camera to the decking?

@@flyingtonyw What are you using for a camera? I've been trying to figure out how to do this.

In the video with C rig, it's attached to the antennae stub with some of the fittings supplied and enclosed in the waterproof housing.
