A foiling Mirror? No, a far better use for wings on the rudder blade.

Finally I understand why people put foils on rudder blades!

Can I ask where you got your cleat arrangement for your enterprise jib? Would like to do that on my Albacore.

You mean the vertical jammers on a track? Allen do them, should be pretty readily available. Only problem is they need to be on the inside edge of a deck because the cleat comes below track height.

It's using the drop stitch technology developed for the iSUP market. (Basically there are 100's of threads connecting the deck and hull, so on inflation you get quite a stiff hull form which as you can see, is stiff enough to plane or surf waves.

I'd seen that at some show or other but there was nobody about to talk to me, there are all sorts of variations, windsurfers with centreboards, rescue life rafts, multi person paddle craft and of course kayaks, it's a great concept for casual use and storage. Not sure that will be quite so easy to break down and store unless those racks come apart, it shouldn't be too expensive, those things start of quite cheap in the iSUP market so it could be brought to market for sub a couple of grand as a beach toy I would have thought.
