Knot Guilty 1977
Member
I'm still new to the class - 14 months. North Americans next week here in Charleston. The "older" style daggerboard has a through-handhold and can be easily grabbed. The new style daggerboard does not have "thought the board" handhold. I noticed in some of the YouTube videos, e.g., Paul John's, that he attached a knotted rope handle to the new style daggerboard to more easily raise and lower it. Anyone have any thoughts on whether the knotted rope handle is class legal? Or whether it would be legal to cut a hand-hole in the new style daggerboard to more easily grasp it??? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.
