There has been discussion among A-cat sailors in Jacksonville about our canted hulls and AuscatV boards (short and square like Taipan 4.9 boards), versus BIM 2000 boards (52 inches, hollw training edge and narrow). Bim climbs to weather like an angel in light stuff: AuscatV does better footing in heavy air.
I have not seriously tried pulling the boards up in heavier air, but will now, by Yumpin' Yiminy.
