In Response To: Self righting (Frank Vaughan 6.7 153)

Bob, the 6.9 is self righting with the CB up to the bolts, about half way up. The 7.9 is self righting with the keel all the way up. I owned a 7.9 for a few years and raced it quite often. This questions always seems to come up when a 6.7 or 6.9 starts winning races.Many one designs raise their centerboards when they race and no one seems to care about that. It's just when you start winning in PHRF thay now every one is concerned. Ken
