Reply to: I think your rigged your main sideways

[quote=Dogboy]Windward rake is not a new concept and there have been cats with articulated rigs here and there over the years. Windsurfers have been doing this for decades. The idea is to generate a vertical lift component to raise the boat out of the water and reduce wetted surface area/drag. I would think it would be less advantageous on a boat with foils though, since the foils are already lifting the boat out of the water. sm<!-- editby --><em>Edited by Dogboy on Apr 21, 2017 - 06:28 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
