		<description><![CDATA[Barry, 

Where will the center of effort be compared to the original design? On the previous design, what was the rudder offset when going to weather at say 15 knots? What will it be with the new design? Where is the center of lateral resistance for the hull with the centerboard down? Where is the new center of effort located with respect to that?

The new sails have a higher center of effort than the original sails because of the increased aspect ratio. What is being done to increase the stability of the hull to compensate for this greater and higher center of effort?
