First sail today went great. The river current was manageable, especially due to all the rains we’ve had recently, the winds were very light. I didn’t have the main rigged just yet so I only put the jib up. Hit a couple of good gusts of wind and was able to fill the sail enough to pull the boat upstream. Other than that mostly motored around to get used to handling the boat, as it’s the largest vessel I’ve ever had to handle.

See below for the video log of the experience via the gopro mounted to the tiller handle.
