    I have now watched all of your videos and become a new subscriber. Love the content, format and the way you present the joy. I am an avid canoe, kayak and row boater from my youth. I never bothered to jump to motorboats because I truly enjoy to quiet, slow pace of self-power. I have always wanted to learn to sail but all my ill fated attempts only served to enhance my swimming abilities. Thanks for all you share. Can’t wait till the next video.

I recently purchased a Peep Hen - 14' of potential. Hopefully I can fall in with a group of blind optimists as well, in the Chesapeake Bay, USA. Fair winds!

    I’m interested in, if / how you solve the heeling over, taking on water problem. Maybe increasing ballast, maybe increasing the weight of your center board, maybe releasing the jib or main sheet to dump the gusting wind, maybe moving to the boat’s high side, maybe some combination? Heh, heh, taking on water is no joke. Thanks for sharing your adventure…from east Tennessee.

    Hi Jeff unfortunately I don't have a centre board, so I'm reliant on the 90 kgs of ballast in the skeg keel to keep me upright and easing the main sheet a big quicker, cheers Paul

    ich liebe kleine boote und baue kleine boote,,,und verstehe nicht, warum die gekauften boote so verbaut sind, dass man kaum zu 2.darin platz findet...viel zu grosse plicht, zu kleine kabinen, immer noch ruderpinnen und dann veralteten mast und rigg...keine neuheiten, keine ideen,,,nix...

    Hallo, ich stimme Ihnen zu, meine Kabine ist etwas klein und das Cockpit groß. Aber ich vermute, dass die Designer denken, dass man mehr Zeit im Cockpit verbringt. Es gibt eine Version meines Bootes, bei der die Gesamtlänge gleich ist, aber die Kabine 40 cm größer und das Cockpit um den gleichen Betrag kleiner ist. Danke fürs Zuschauen und schick mir ein Foto von deinem Boot, Grüße Paul
