I’ve been wondering about the benefits of having a daggerboard or other foil in the ama.
Why have a third foil on a boat like Jzerro or Madness, where the dagger rudders *should* do the job? Is it about having more foil in the water upwind? Is it about having the a foil upwind of the rig? What effect does it have on the handling of the boat?
Just wonderin’
best,
Chris
