So, Im new to the community after getting a new 2015 laser sunfish from my uncle (with wood daggerboard/rudder and race sail). This is my first sailboat, and having some small kids, I am hoping to introduce them (and possibly myself), into racing. Ive always been a surfer, paddleboarder and avid motorcyclist and builder; and, I am completely new to sailboats, only after helping a friend race his J-boat several times.
That being said, and having friends in the auto racing industry as well as some experience with carbon fiber, I was wondering what the demand would be if I was to start making carbon daggerboards and/or rudders. I was even going to experiment with keel designs to improve performance. Any ideas, comments or suggestions are encouraged.
Also, Im located in Lake Norman, NC.
Thanks!
