I have no idea who you are, but you are no woman. Maybe a Drag Queen, possibly a Tranny, but no, you are not a woman
nor even a passable immatator. Women are incapable of thinking within Aristoclesian boundaries.


Some men just refuse to believe some of us women have brains. I guess you're too used
to Katy. But, you're right about the Aristoclesian thing. I'm clueless..... But I do sail sailboats.
Mostly small ones. Errr... only small ones. Junk gets caught on the rudder so it doesn't take
a genius to guess it would get caught on keels that have hinges and that stick out from the
hull even when they're folded up beside the hull. Duh.
Now, what I'd like to see is a keel that has flaps like an airplane. But split flaps. When your
running before a storm you could crank out the flaps on both sides of the end of the keel so
they acted like a brake. You wouldn't have to bother towing warps and you could crank out
enough flap so you could keep your speed just right. Also when you were going slow and to
weather in regular winds you could use the flaps on the right side and it would give you more
lift so you could point higher.
