Here’s a short video showing the view from the deck saloon of a Garcia Exploration 45. We’re running on engine back into the harbour at about 1500 revs.

We’ve been quite impressed with the boat speeds we’ve been able to achieve so far, with minimal to zero fine tuning. On our first outing we had 9.3 knots from 12-13 knots of true wind, on a close reach. Today it was almost six knots from less than 9 knots of true wind, reaching. Keep in mind that it’s a heavy cruiser, not a racer. :-)
