Waves, since we were going a bit downwind came from left side, slightly from back (say from 7-8 o’clock) and turned my edel 4 pretty much to the left, into the wind….
    So I wanted to ask what is the strongest wind that you have sailed your edel 4 (with retractable keel) and with what sail? IO have roll genoa and main sail, and last weekend we sailed only with main sail. Would it be better to sail with half rolled genoa?

    How much wind and sea can Edel 4 take?
