: I assume you're sinking that Guillemot L past its design displacement,
: although it sure looks fine in the picture.

I don't know the design displacement, but I had no problems to handle it in waves up to 7' on that trip. My "L" is 19' long and 23" wide (it's a "VL") :) .
Here's another pic from the same place (outside Grebbestad in Sweden).

Best regards
Tom
