I believe Andrew understands that the class ruls have a width limit and the wings will exceed that, perhaps you could strap some carbon stilts to your feet! Keeping within the ruls that is...you could have stilt holders in the side of your hull with quick release breakaway straps if you go for a swim..Andrew is saying by not allowing wings is not benefiting the class, or any of the other cat classes, yet our friends sailing monohulls are embrasing the use of light carbon wings to enhance their speed..just my thoughts...
