We took the Kitefoiler out today for a second test with a kite. We spent a bit of time hunting for wind, but found a reliable source east of Alcatraz and Angel Island. Dudu helped launch the kite, then left the Kitefoiler so Don and Joe could pick up speed. He later returned to the Kitefoiler to see if his extra weight would make it easier to steer at top speeds, which it did. We achieved the fastest speed yet for this boat, 27 knots. The kite bridle looked loose in one place, although it did not cause kite steering difficulties.
