Rob Aside from where you like to put your wieght and add buoyancy. If going really fast with the greatest amount of sail area least amount of weight and with...
Mal, With respect for your experienced opinion, the limits for length to beam ratio's are 8:1 at one end and 25:1 (approx.) at the other Correct ? I have no...
