In a 2018 review, Zuzana Prochazka wrote, "unfortunately, our test would have made even the most lax club race seem boisterous as we hoisted sail on the flat waters of the Chesapeake in a breeze that occasionally gusted to nine knots. Undaunted by the weather, we managed to have fun and point high despite the fluky wind. At 35 degrees apparent wind angle, we managed to sail 5.2 knots in nine knots of true breeze. When we cracked off to 120 degrees, we still carried 3.7 knots of boat speed and then we came back up to five knots at 65 degrees."
