Love it!
Now I have the hang of how to use SL wind, which isn't that difficult, I can't keep out of Windy the Dinghy and I am going to urge my friends to get one so we can have a sailing club. Much more interesting when you need to think how to get the power to go forward.
Sail and have fun
Yes I have must try out your Windy, it s a new experience to sail with the SL Wind-)
The boat smooth as well and the vane and the HUD respond prompt.
Good work.
