Ok how long is the 5.5 foil compared to the 5.8. A 70" foil
will fit the 5.2. Both foils are available, the 5.5 from
KOsailing the 5.8 from Murrys. Foils are within $10.00 of each other. The reason I would like a foil is I know of 2
5.2s which had hull failures when flying a spin. Both
boats granted were 25 to 30 yrs old, & never designed for a
spin. Neither had a foil, and still a foil may not prevent a failure in a 30 yr old boat. In looking on line the 5.5 does appear narrower, if the length is right (70" or less) I'll go with that one, if not the 5.8 will fit. I greatly
appriciate(sp) all the input. As I believe the only stupid
question, is the one not asked.
Thanks
