HULL

The rugged keel centerboard system houses the board entirely in the lead casting. The board is currently secured in the up posistion so keel draws 4'10". The rudder structure was designed to stand by itself, without the skeg in the event the skeg is broken away. The shroud chainplates and bolt pattern spread the load over the chainplate bulkhead, which in turn spreads loads well out aft along the hull skin through two widely spaced bulkheads.
