Test Review - 28/07/2010

RRD X-Fire 112lt Ltd 2010





Danny,

You asked me to drop you a line with my impressions of the X Fire 112 you sold me a couple of months ago.

Well, it's been seeing quite a bit of use in the sea breezes of late - definitely gets going well when my FSW 105 would be struggling. It goes fast upwind and very fast downwind - although I haven't had a chance to test the real top end yet. It's also pretty easy to sail - gybes are fairly straightforward and tacks easier than the fsw with all that width (as long as you don't hang around in front of the mast). So,  I'm delighted with it!

Cheers,

George
