Would any of the "scientific" sailors help me with a question?
In "light air" with the "crew trapping out off the lee hull" and the "skipper under the boom" to lighten the windward hull; create less drag on the lee hull, than the crew sitting on it? I got this idea that maybe because with the crew trapped, the compression of the lee hull is not as great as sitting on it.
Any ideas from the engineers?
