Having designed a few keels (still on the boats as far as I know) and
looking at the remarkably small amount of material that narrow chord
profile
represents, I would love to see how they held this on and distributed the
strains through the hull. It would have been a significant engineering
challenge make this work.
At least one of the reports mentioned a crew member saying they hit
something
hard. My first thought was that they must have run into the barely
submerged
hulk of the Redcloud.
That's it! I think you got it! One lubberly, so-called sailor wipes out a
bunch of stupid Aggies . . . What's an Aggie doing sailing a boat anyway?
Should they be driving a John Deere?
