do you think the foils may have hurt the hull's ability to recover from the nose-dive during the turn down?
Since those things aren't adjustable, I would figure at some point the foils were actually trying to dive for lobster along with the bows...
And having 131 feet of wing pushing didn't help, either...
Those foils must have had incredible loads on them during that event...and you would think that when those lifting boards point to the bottom that they drive harder to the bottom. I heard mention that the foil loads tore up the hulls during that dive and they didn't even know if the hulls were repairable.
