Good question that I'd been thinking about also. * Possibly some sort

I think with or without lifting you have to be able to handle the nose
getting stuffed. It's going to happen. As I watch the vedio more it
sort of looks like they might have been trying to turn to the left as
well and may be that got them into trouble. Be interesting to see
what the full size version looks like.

These racing sail boats have become nothing but racing boats. Used to
be they were sort of real sailboats as well. Guess you can say the
same thing about power.
