    It will be real interesting to see if any of these boats adopt the lifting foil on the daggerboard like Gitana 17. And real interesting to see how Gitana 17 does against them....

    I saw those drawings the other day but I couldn't figure out if I was seeing a foil on the daggerboard or a rudder T-foil or both. I finally decided it must be a rudder t-foil.
    The ama uptip foils are obvious. I like Len Surtees-I'll see if I still have his e-mail. I'm having good luck with responses these days-I'm on a roll I guess......
    UPDATE-I didn't have it but finally ran across it and sent him an e-mail. Maybe he'll write back!
