Well, it turned out to be a good day to test this winter's dagger board casing repair - since the wind didn't really come out to play, except for one pleasant reach across the reservoir.
Fortunately, the repair seems to have been successful. There remains a small amount of water ingress from somewhere else - nothing that cannot be mopped up by an occasional sponge but I couldn't track down the source. I'll just have to keep looking and that can only mean one thing - more sailing!
