So Jake, you'd allow a computer to control the ride hight on a foiling AC cat, as long as the hydrolics are human powered?

So how about letting the computer help steer the boat too, and trim the wing, just like it does with the foils? I see no difference.

Like I said earlier, where do you draw the line on what the computers get to control, vs. the humans?

Humans can turn a handle and pump up a hydrolic reservoir, and let the computers do the rest, but is that Sailing?

W T F?

How about we let them have all the electricly powered hydrolics they want, but NOTHING is computer controlled, ie HUMANS have to trim the wing, and the foils, and steer the boat. Humans would have to actually SAIL the boats, what a concept!
