in Go Faster tips and questions.

Has anyone (around 80kgs) played around with softer centreboards?

Thanks

Ian, no superstar by any means, but I always found that the old style Cumulus reached a terminal wind velocity where it simply didn’t depower, the D+ was immediately easier/more forgiving, one of those changes you regret not doing sooner. It is fair to say that in lighter winds some people still perform admirably with old style Cumulus’ though not sure if anyone is cutting sails to suit.
