Duo dinghy sailing in the Bahamas

This is my first sail in my 10ft 2 sheet plywood dinghy Duo. Great to test it in the warm, crystal clear waters of the Bahamas! This boat was built as a rowing boat in two days, see here http://sailingcatamarans.com/index.php/designs-2/46-beach-cats-and-dinghies/431-edensaw-boatbuilding-challenge It is normally used as the tender to our Skoota 28 powercat. Usually we row it everywhere, although we do have a 2hp outboard. This was the first sail, just after rigging. As you can see, I am missing a sail batten (in short supply on powerboats!) and I still need to sort out the oar storage when sailing. After the video shoot I went off for a couple of hours sailing around. I was very pleased to find i could just plane in the 12 knots of wind Another video next time I go out, hopefully in the next few days More on the Duo here http://sailingcatamarans.com/index.php/designs-2/46-beach-cats-and-dinghies/420-duo-10ft-sailrow-dinghy
