When I build a prototype I will build it with removable skegs and test it thoroughly with skegs and c/bs both with deep rudders. The purpose of this testing will be to quantify the difference in performance and handling between the two. I will then decide if the difference in performance is worth the additional cost of manufacturing hulls with centrecases and then manufacturing centre boards. As the finished craft would be much cheaper with skegs. There is little point in making this decisions without first getting the data to ensure it is an informed one.

I know that the voices in my head aint real, but they have some pretty good ideas. There is no such thing as a quick fix and I've never had free lunch!
