What would you do?

Just attach a few t-foils to the wings and your sorted.

A pair of wands to control the ride height and you away!


Any idea of the site that has pics / info on this lovely foilind rs600?

Sensible Hydro-foils on the 49er just so we can go harder down-wind when the waves are up and theres a bit of a breeze, appart from that, wouldn't want to alter a thing...... Other minor adjustments may be to alter the way that the wing tracks are connected to the hull, ie instead of having two nuts behind the deck, have a fixed plate so that it doesn't become an absolute mission to tighten up the tracks when the bolts start loosening off. Another modification would be to lead the kicker and possibly cunningham lines back to a positions on the deck which can be lead out externally so either helm or crew can adjust the tuning of the boat from the wire.

18ft Skiff no.2 rig on the B14, twin traps off the racks...

You'll see me down the mine every bear away. 

Move the pivot hole for the Laser rudder, so the blade can go more upright and reduce the feeling of weather helm.

One very simple zero-cost (as far as I can see) change that would make life more pleasant for many thousands of sailors.

Two things

 

1   Remove the corners from the back of a laser to stop the the main sheet catching!

 

2   I would tie three buckets to the back of every phantom other than mine!
