Forgive me for saying so everybody, but please read the posts carefully and try to understand what is said.

Alot of you are simply guessing at things I already looked at in some detail.

The reason why I disgarded the fixed foils with an adjustable trailing edge is given in my initial posting.

If you balance the pitch trim of your boat with such a device, you do nothing else than putting additional weight on the stern of it, which causes drag...


That is not what I mean by T-foil trim. Basically I'm trying to get a certain attitude of the boat in different conditions and ADJUST the foils so they do not fight this. That is why I want adjustable foils. My trim in light winds and flat water is different from strong winds and rought water. All this has already been written in my initial posting.

and I am wondering that foils are legal in F16


T-foils are.
