We have launched Blue Moon! But not before we got some minor speed work done! We had some spots on the keel where the fairing compound and lost its bond with the lead, so we had those ground down and re faired. Then we invested in a little bit of speed work indulgence: we hung her in the slings over a weekend and had the bottom of the keel faired!




Holy hellz bellz…. This is the finest detailed post about smoothing the keel fairing ever! The importance of making the deep keel efficient cannot be overstated! 🙂
