It’s almost as if Lyle Hess designed the Fatty Knees 8 to plug into the Baba 30! I can’t believe how perfectly this boat fits into our fore triangle!
The sail from Fk. Lauderdale to Key Biscayne was an absolute pleasure in a cool fresh breeze on all points of a starboard tack. It was a perfect opportunity to test the sailing dynamic of the boat with Tursiops on the bow.
31.7 nautical miles in 8 hours and 4 minutes making an average speed of 3.95 knots with a max speed of 6.9 knots. We pulled and shook both reefs throughout the day. Like I (James) said…
Perfect!
