On a cold morning on the Baltic Sea we hit 16.4 knots on a broad reach with fresh breeze. Kiwi handles well even to wind with a gentle weather helm. Builder (Steffen Mueller of Knierim Yachts - Germany), Architect (David de Prémorel of Finot-Conq - France), Sail Maker (Justin Ferris of Doyle Sails - New Zealand) and crew all agree a great boat. Easy to handle and fast. Christening tomorrow.
