.....the Lark centreboard on the other hand is a big lump of melted bauxite......not much technology there!

Oh! I never thought of that!
Just for info, the H2 centreboard has multiple laminations of unidirectional carbon, so should be pretty bulletproof. The biggest problem with it is that it is very slippery!

Agreed, but it is still in a way promoting the "H2", centreboard chat prompted by H2's centreboard being strong enough to stand on end, which is a good thing, the Lark which is a very tippy boat and is likely to need more righting than the H2, you cannot stand on end, which could be a bad thing.

Yep, standard.  Only sailed them at Uni many moons ago, but my recollection is that if you put your weight on the end, there was a real danger of permanently bending the board/plate.

The only Lark I have seen had an Aluminium Centre board, is this not standard ?

All those suggesting that boards should be strong enough to stand on the end clearly haven't sailed Larks.
