19.5 knots is good for the Cutty Sark. The MFsails at 18 to 19 knots pretty easilly with the right kind of winds in her sheets but did you realise that the Falcon has done 24.8 knots sailing. No engine power. That Dynarig is amazing. It has so much potential and has proven itself. I would like to see it employed more. I know that Perini Navi has a project in the pipeline that calls for this rig but on a slightly smaller scale.
