I sail a R33 on Lake Coeur d'Alene Idaho and the problem I am having is my dagger boards keep getting beat to crap. There are enough logs on the lake that float a foot or two just under the water that I hit them fairly often. Last time I hit one it brought the R33 to a complete stop and took a large chunk out of the starboard board. So my thought is I either need to build break away edges on the boards for easy repair or totally get rid of the boards and re-design the dagger trunks to accommodate a set-up like on the Hobie 21 Sport Cruiser or H17 sport. So I am hoping some of you may have some great ideas. Luckily on the R33 they made the trunks very strong and kind of off to the side of the hull, which appears to me that if I hit something and damaged the trunks extensively it would not create a hole in the hull. I did wash the hulls yesterday while in the water next to the beach and I reach under the hull and found some damage on the bottom of the trunk (fiberglass torn up a bit). I am really getting tried of the darn boards hitting things and fixing them regularly but maybe there is nothing I can do. Any help via suggestions would greatly be appreciated.
