Steve,
thanks,.....well that makes things interesting...!
..I wonder if the daggarboard ( @ 10 pounds a piece)...could be redesigned like the tiapan 4.9 boards ( they cut out the middle that is supported by the hull in down position),...would make a nice weight reduction,...without sacrificing structural stenght,......just like the aero-industry......just a wonder.
Thanks , again
