One year ago or so, there was a discussion, if it is faster to trapeze or not downwind when single handed. I gave it a try.
I realized that my sheet was a bit too short with the W-layout, which I prefer when going single handed. Already fixed for the next time...

And it was slower (vmg), it was really light winds...

I've worked out that at only really pays to wire down wind once you are wiring upwind.
