...questions...how does the p 18/19 sail with the dagger board half way
down[if you're trying to get through a very shallow area]...and has any one
considered building a shoal draft fixed rudder similar to those put on cat
boats and sharpies...i.e...a larger rudder[some call it a barn darn] with a
wing or plate on the bottom of the rudder[ i.e...horizontal to the
rudder]...plate/wing improves bite despite shallow rudder...please...is it
possible to have a bit of dialogue about techniques for sailing in let's say
2' of water...and as well options on rethinking the rudder...look forward to
much conversation...k
