Can't comment on the physics, but (and I will need to check the video to be 100% sure), he is saying 'wetted' surface area, not wet-to-surface. In other words, the wet bit of the hull :)

Glossop used the Activate days last year to kick start the Laser fleet - and it had good results. I'm one of three who bought Lasers on the back of the days and this year there are hopefully more training days for the fleet to keep the momentum going. I think time on the water away from the...

Android would be good for me too - and you could make it an ad supported app which might work OK for you. I'd find it useful being a beginner.

Is there actually a difference between the Harken kicker that Laser Performance supply and the one available from places such as Sailboats.co.uk? The photos below show differences, the one on the left is from Laser. There doesn't seem to be much difference, but I'm just about to order...
