Where's the rudder?
Like some other things - sailing is more enjoyable when you do it with someone else

The rib dropped him onto the keel. They took the rudder off for safety reasons I think  Smile

Hugo Boss is one of the few that actually doesn't use kick-ups, can't think why not....

if i recall rightly they did have problems with the kick up rudders in 2007 Barcelona world race they spent most of the time facing the sky
she have them until her overhaul in 2010
when she got that nice new two tone paint job
she claimed to be 37% more powerful than the rest of the IMOCA 60 however, this is still to be proven due the fact she lacks reliability
