Hey Nutsy,

Just think how much faster you'd go if that same wind was pushing you on
a "Iceboat" without any heel. No need for increased hull lenght. Think
how much faster you'd go on a sailboard with no heel with the sail
streaight up. Consider the better speeds capable by Multi hulls without
the "EVIL" of Heel.

You don't have to call it Evil but it is a unwanted action of a
displacement hull as soon as it comes off the wind and starts going
across or up wind.

I think of it as "EVIL!"

AND: "I'LL DRINK TO THAT!"

Ole Thom
