Daggerboards have finally started taking shape. Time to start the yoke on which to hang them. Looking forward to getting some good work done on everything this weekend- not alot planned now, but you know how that goes.
You can see from this angle the profile of the daggerboards- a wing shape. For the most part things that are aerodynamic are also hydrodynamic, the two fluids (air and water) behaving in much the same way. Also pictured is half of a 1/2" PVC pipe that will be fitted to the leading edge, to prevent substantial scarring if the soft pine daggerboards run aground.
