  • The daggerboard is necessary for the boat to be able to go to windward efficiently. The amas do a great job of keeping the boat from sliding sideways in light airs, but the deep dagger is a necessary feature of this boat. Mr. Marples and Jim Brown both have years of experience under their belt with this stuff and designed this sailboat accordingly. The boat (I am told) is also very dry. No spray is propelled upward into the faces of the crew.

  • a great idea. see wooden boat 217 or the recent boat design quarterly.

  • Man! does this thing load slowly! My question is: What's with the dagger board? Wouldn't slab sides on the outer surfaces of the amas provide enough underwater lateral surface to prevent leeway? (Though curved inner sides on the amas might throw great gouts of spray into the crews' faces.)
