Wings are on birds and airplanes.

On a sailboat keel those appendages are end plates. Just because
some stupid magazine writer calls them wings does not
make it so.

Then notice the inefficient end plates that fail to take into account the
fact
that having them commence at the leading edge of the rudder is causing
more
drag then if they were placed toward the aft side of the keel.


It's a picture of the keel...... those are wings.
