Progress has been fairly steady every day. I put the boat in the water yesterday and we towed it around for a while (without the wing on) and I was surprised at the low drag of the hull. I was expecting the big flat transom to be more of a problem than it is. At six or seven knots I was able to hold onto the boat with just two fingers. Stability without the floats is slightly better than expected. Overall, all the results have been very promising and I feel encouraged that the design isn't too far out there!
