2014 Severne Overdrive R5

First time out on the 2014 Severne OD R5 today.

7.0 OD R5 on 2014 iS117 with 39 Select. The wind was only light to begin with (around 12 knots), then built to 18knts.

First impressions are that the sail is very light, very smooth, rotates very smoothly in the gybes and tacks, and is just ONE SWEET RIDE! I did need to rig it with 2cm more downhaul than printed on the sail, as I could feel the leech not twisting off and driving me into the wind. More downhaul helped, and I was lovin it.

I've come from Severne Reflex sails and was suspicious of the move to the OD, but I reckon it's going to be more than OK.

I've got two of these in 7.0 and 8.6 and if the 7.0 gets me going in 12 knots on fresh water, then the 8.6 should have awesome light air drive.
