so, making a transom (that doesn't break) 10 times stronger is a *benefit*?

Sounds like a disadvantage to me. Extra cost, extra weight, slower boat speed,
all to fix a problem that doesn't exist.

dougie, a "benefit" is something that adds to the overall effect. In this

there is no benefit because there is no problem with transoms not being
strong
enough on the size and type sailboats under discussion. Calling it a
benefit
doesn't make it one.

Let's see... an inherently stronger structure is not better than an
inherently weaker one? What sort of engineering is this? Oh wait, it's
JAXINEERING!

That must explain why there's no such thing as hull speed... structural strength
can be zero because they never break... that means boats can be weightless!

Getting all this MC?

Yes I'm seeing your ass get whipped again on very basic concepts. Why
not throw in the towel?

Good lord! It's like a discussion with an imbecile.

It was! He was talking to Jax!
