Can you give more info on the electronics/solar setup/batteries/etc?

[Berky]

We have two new 100w solar panels , the house battery bank is AMG but the LTO cells look fantastic and if I keep the boat that's what I will run on the next big cruise. We used 8 large gels in the past and got 12 years out of them but NEVER discharged below 12.2v

Couple silly questions, she only have a dagger board on the starboard side? What sort of sailing speeds have you experienced, and how high into wind will she point.
Also, how difficult would it be to install divets?

[Berky]

Hi,

Performance with one board is great , we would see 11 knots @ 35 degrees apparent in 18 knots of wind speed. The only difference between one and two boards was big seas the bow would foot off a bit at the top of the swell

Is she still available? still a few months from making the move, but looking around. Thanks!
