If you have the time, money and accept the risk of breaking your boat/rig, go for it!

I can not help but think "truck engine in a beetle" and "pitchpole machine", but go for it and make sure to post some photos! You will no doubt get some pretty special experiences out of the process.

Wooden wing? Go for it as well! It will be a bit heavy, but again.. A very special experience. Do post photos
