Rig geometry of course!




Now we are getting somewhere.


Good lord. What a pompus man.


What rig geometery would favor a frac rig (remembering the issue of jib
head tip vortex)? Would aspect ratio be significant (again, just a
reminder, jib head tip vortex)? How about the head angle of each sail
respectively?


So, you don't know? Why do you want to know, you don't cut sails or
design rigs? Isn't this yet more pomposity on your part?


... This reminds me of children who are too lazy/stupid to frame a
question properly and don't really want to know the answer but just
get attention. They just keep saying "But why..."



So, even your toddlers are asking you questions that you don't know the
answer to?


You really don't get it do you? In the previous para I count no less
than 3 questions.


Cheers
