Last week the CarolMarie went out with the for a daysail with Kevin, Sarah, Linda, Linda's Mom, Alisha, Ray, Rachel, and your capt'n.
Just outside the marina, on the Columbia River we through up the kite, into 10-12 knots of steady wind. The CarolMarie took off, flying upriver into a 3/4 knot current on a flooding tide, doing 7.2-7.5 knots over the water. The conversion shows that's 8.25 mph over ground.
