Difficult conditions didn't stop Hamish and Matt getting some well deserved air time.

It is great to see the newest R on the water and showing some of its potential. Hamish seems to be quickly working towards consistent flight. Hopefully the breeze will be more stable next time out.

"2nd Jan (a few months later than anticipated) we got the first flight! This was after a new years spent in the shed extending the rudder chord by 80% as steering was an issue somewhat in the sailing leading up to the day" - Hamish
