I haven't been in to see it in person, these photos are from their facebook page. I'll get close to it soon. I'm very interested in how they achieved the 2'8" draft with the centerboard.

        I think they have the right scale in the design.
        
        hope they have enough rudder
        
        That's why it has rudders, I think(2 in fact).
        
        Yeah but...
        
        My main point is the rudders could be a design compromise
        
        Rudder design.
