I did not start this thread to get into an "answer and question, bun fight" session concerning the pro's and con's of some "skeptical theorizing" of how or how not foils do or do not work.
Not a 'bun fight' mate.... I am genuinely interested and throwing my thoughts out there. Am very interested in peoples reply and would love nothing more to see it proven. I am not big on the ‘It works because I say so’ but am after at least some well thought out answers. I have an open mind but will not be lead blindly into believing. I was hoping what I was giving was constructive criticism.
If anything…… Some of what I have said could be thought about and if it is valid, used to improve systems or sailing techniques. We all learn through each other.
We currently see the F16 and now F14 class using foil rudders. No offense but these 2 classes are far from professional classes. Why have we not seen other more professional classes trial these. May be most of these other classes have something in their class rules forbidding this ????????
Also, this is not directed personaly at you but the entire foil / no foil debate.
