Dagger Board conceptual design

Post by Yuz »

For a winter project i've been thinking of adding a fin/dagger board to my OB to assist tracking and as an additional stability measure... Not that it needs it :D Do you think it'd make a difference?

Hey Swivels,

Nice design... only issue i can see is the shallow area. Have you considered upgrading to the Sailing rudder. This is the easiest and best option i reckon.

I did try out a few time the OB, and not too much issue with tracking. Having the ST turbo fin might also assist. Hope this helps :D
Cheers,
