The red line shows the proposed course we would aim to take. We would tow SR2 to the beach at upper left and raise the wing there. SR2 would then be eased out and allowed to drift down-wind under the guidance of the support rib. Once clear of the shore she would be released and I would try and get her started by sailing her back into the wind to create apparent wind and align all the wing sections. Once over her low speed drag hump and sailing back in towards the shore, I would control her speed
