Bonaire Lac Bay. Sailworks Retro 7.5, iSonic 107, Black Project FreeDeltaRE 21. Wind: 12.5 knots ENE
Light wind but sailable with some pumping. First chance to try the FreeDeltaRE on the iSonic 107. As on the iSonic 90, it is much easier to spin the fin out if too much pressure is applied - typically for me this occurs when trying to beat upwind. The slalom fins work much better for pointing into the wind. On the other hand, the tide was MUCH lower than I had ever seen it before so I had no worries with this fin. Sailed into the edge of the 'rental area' twice and saw multiple catapult dismounts from people hitting the bottom where normally they would have been fine.
