The plywood wing keel prototype has been moved back 8" to improve the balance by moving the Center of Lateral Resistance (CLR) aft

and still have enough excessive area left so that it can be cut away as needed to

achieve as perfect a balanced

helm as possible. The 4" x 4" piece on the bottom was reshaped to reduce resistance while keeping the same lateral area.
