Atypical's Maiden Voyage

Maiden Voyage. It's a great day. I launched Atypical at Sardis Lake. Not much wind, but I was elated that it floated and there were no leaks. Motored out and then raised the sail. Finally got a small but steady breeze and tacked up wind about three miles, then downwind back to the ramp. Stayed out on the water about 4 hours. I'm very pleased with the boat's performance. It feels big and safe.

    She looks pretty on the water! Yes, I reckon mine feels more like a 20 footer and very stable.
