The schooner featured in this video is the “Annie” prototype, and displays a couple of small details that differ from the final plans. 
Most obvious is that the fore-sail sheet passes thru the deck on the starboard side rather than on the port side as shown in the plans.
We suggest you FOLLOW the PLANS!

The sailing footage in this video was taken by the Bearospace crew traveling alongside “Annie” in a 9 foot rowboat fitted with an electric trolling motor. The powered rowboat could barely keep up with “Annie”. Gary steered the boat and sailed the schooner while Spike hung over the side with video camera in hand. A fun time was had by all!
The footage is playing at 1/2 SPEED in this video, to achieve scale looking wave action.
