| Assymetric foils/hulls on a proa. How much assymetry is too much? From Gary Dierkings to The port madison proa (duckworks).... Heard talk of too much lift here on other threads - for cats tho. Seems to make a lot more sense on a proa tho....? Why dont proa's use assymetric foils/daggerboards?  |

| Some proas like Harmen Hielkema's Toroa successfully used asymmetric dagger rudders. Tom Speer did the real research and has the info here: http://www.basiliscus.com/ProaSections/ProaIndex.html |
