I am sure Philip or Sam can speak with much more knowledge than I on this. This power was used for everything from raising and lowering the boards to adjusting the sail/wing (and probably a cappuccino machine below deck) I would [b]guess[/b] it is similar for these boats, the grinders are creating the power for sail adjustments but i can't find any hard data on that at this time[/quote]
