Default An actual sailing topic

A sailing topic! How dare you?

I'd question if the value of being able to do a quick head sail change
is not in fact outweighed by the windage of the double foil, also I know
it's not much but it does move some extra weight aloft.



What windage of the foil? Racing boats use them, there is not much
windage. In fact, using hanks probably is more inefficient.




I'm Horvath and I approve of this post.
