"light air on a reach", sailings holy grail for me.

6 or 7 knots of wind, flat water and boat speeds in the 4 to 5 knot range. That's where I'm happiest, I could go forever.

I'm hoping the gains, whatever % they are, will be in that light air sweet spot, or maybe make the wind range, a little lower?

I've been smoothing the bottom the last few years and taking excess weight off(reaching the end there), I've noticed improvements, hoping for more.
