Hi!

Congratulations!
 
My boat left the factory a week ago and is now undergoing the launch  preparations (antifouling, rigging, etc.) , so I do have the hull number Wink
The order number is #275, it was placed in Dec 2023 with the scheduled production end March 2025, but it was in fact finished mid Jan 2025.

To my knowledge the lead time for 460s is now way less, as most of the 8 series boats are no longer produced, making room for the new models.

we have sailed (raced?) the boat to windward with and without the furled reacher in place and could not determine anything different i.e. faster with the reacher in its sailbag below deck and not on its forestay.

About two year ago just as cruisers with a jib and a reacher each on a hard forestay were coming to the cruise/racer fleet modified it's one headsail rule to allow use of both provided only one was open at the time. So, in racing, furl the jib first before unfurling the reacher.
