(pic) (Harry Gordon, WWP14 #234, Manatee, Mtn. View, CA) Harry, I am keeping the centerboard, and trying to find the best position- ect-when smooth- in current- with 3 foot rollers. Have not had the rough water for trials like I hoped but I sure feel and the boat sure feels more secure. It would be nice to do away with the trunk but I think I will need that weight and the ability to adjust it. This set up will be tested along with me. Thanks Buzz Gentes
