Very cool...I guess with the Nacra 20 class not really being a class anymore, that kind of mod really makes sense. Did you do the GT300 with the wings?

From a design standpoint, having the wings be self-supporting does make things simpler to operate but it changes the rigging loads (the shroud now supports the extra leverage instead of the trapeze wires) and adds slightly more weight (very slight). I'm sure that there is plenty of extra load carrying ability in the shrouds for that - but using the trap wires to support the wing instead of bracing it back to the beam will stay closer to the original loading configuration. On the other hand, you would have to rig up some other trapeze configuration in order to trap off the wing...and a wing that doesn't have the bracing to keep it in place, might fold up on you...

huh. So, yeah, nevermind. Looks great.
