Doug, We use them all the time. In 10kts of wind or less, they produce a great sheeting angle. Once the wind pipes up, we may switch to the outside cars to get some more adjustability. I damaged one of mine last year. We had the car all the way forward on the inside track and it actually pulle

There is a C&C 36 being auctioned this weekend at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum in St. Michaels Maryland. I helped bring it down from the northern bay to SM the other day and got to take a good look at it. Pretty well equipped - 10 winches, autopilot, wind/speed/depth, gps, RF, all a bit old

I am sending it back. I maybe should have looked more at the measurements – it looks like it came from a 1/3 scale model! It might be good for a RIB in the 14-16 foot range maybe? I checked to see if it would fit the dinghy and it would except the vertical mounts are too tall for the dinghy st

Stus-List Wing Keel Lift?

2016-04-30 Thread Lorne Serpa via CnC-List
So, working on buying my 1st sailboat greater than 15'. It's a 1988 30MkII. It has a wing keel. I read somewhere that a wing keel generates some lift. So Does a wing keel create lift? Should I have more heavy stuff at the back of the boat for increased angle of attack on the keel? Or.. don't

Keel lift is a horizontal, not vertical force. Keels are hydrodynamic foils - when they are moved through water they cause both lift and drag forces to develop. Lift is the positive lateralforce that allows a boat to move to windward - drag is the negative, resisting force. A good sailboat

Lorne, If it's in good shape, buy the boat. The foils on the keel and wing are optimized for lift to drag ratio at hull speeds. The boat sails well at four degrees incidence angle and you can feel yourself being lifted to weather on as beat. The winglets are mounted well above the foot of th

Hi all, thanks again for the advice. My boat does have a switch on the bulkhead and pumps through the weird spigot into the sink. It's surprising how much you can miss when you're learning a new boat. Cheers, Al > On Apr 27, 2016, at 6:39 PM, Brian Fry via CnC-List > wrote: > > On my 93 3
