was trying to reply to your post when you deleted it, STAY STILL! the blue line is just tape i used to mark when daggerboards are up and it's safe to beach

i hardly ever have them all the way down but when they are down they are longer than the rudders, which doesn't tie up with the nacra 5.2 line drawing, pic attached

maybe they lengthened them during the 10? years of 5.2 production, or maybe mine got lost at some time and the japanese importer passed off some 5.8 daggers as 5.2???

will measure them next time out at lake

the pics are a little different, for this thread i posted the shot that had the most heel, for the show the cats thread i posted the best overall pic
