On the subject,i'm thinking about buting this guy's laser, and in the centerboard trunk there seems to be some stuff he put on the sides to make the centerboard stop humming when he got going fast.(he says it worked). Will this effect anything?(good, bad....)
wel, the centerboard humming is perfectly normal, it just means you are going fast. I am not sure what you mean by wobble though.
Thanx Glasky! But it wasn't MY boat that had the board wobble! heh heh. Twas nice to sail with you on Sunday too. Thanx.Maljam...
regards
The hum has to do with the imperfect flow of water past the rear tip of the daggerboard. there's nothing you can do about it... other then not sailing in planing conditions.
