[quote=Andinista]Thanks for the advice, I sail a N5.5. About grinding the bottom, I accepted it’s part of it and guess I’ll need to reinforce them more often. I’m more concerned about the rudders being pushed by the waves when stopped, they get some beating. I pull them up manually but often it’s just me so I can’t reach both sides with the boat on the water before hitting ground. So I'll try pulling the boards up earlier and staying aft after catching the wave. Also, I’m used to unlock the rudder and let it pop before hitting ground, i used to sail on a lake where it wasn’t good idea. I’ll let the pivmatic work more often and see.[/quote]
