No harder than any other sailboat above 20’ in length. It’ll be a little tippy when weight is shifted around, but nothing serious. Just realize that where your weight is concentrated impacts boat speed & pointing (angle to the wind). All the basic sail controls are the same. It’s nice that they’re lead aft to the cockpit for convenience. It’ll take some time to learn how to optimize sail trim, but that’s the same issue when learning to sail on any sailboat. It’s handicap for racing (PHRF rating) is pretty low, so it’ll require a skilled skipper & crew to be competitive.
