He's 74. Good shape physically but now at the age where minor falls for us are not so minor fir him. Honestly, there are not a lot of years left he can race a boat like this but I am damn sure going to do whatever I can to see he can and try to mitigate the risk.


My argument is that the hiking rack does not provide any more righting moment than a trap. Your bodies center of mass is no farther away from the rail. Using a wing it most definitely is.
