As a beginner for 6 months, I cannot review this sail.
I broke my 4.7 kid sail on sunday when learning the rear footstrap, so rather that fixing the panel, I might as well buy something that is indestrutable.
This kid sail being torn part. It is extremely light weight, much lighter than 3.2 rental gear soft sail. Since I am learning planing, this sail cannot tolerate my torture anymore, so I might as well look for something that is not destructible.
I got a 5.5 yesterday to try out in 15-20 knots of wind in flat water. As advertised, very comfortable and smooth, which what I need as a beginner. Although a lot heavier that my kid sail, the weight gives me stability
I am learning footstraps at the moment, cannot have a broken sail all the time. This sail should be tough.
John also showed me how to rig this sail. Rigging a monofilm sail is completely different, as this sail is hard to tell from the leech of enough downhaul or not
