Has anyone checked the fairness in accordance with the designer's offsets regarding the foils? Does anyone have a set of offsets for the keel and rudder? I wish to check those on Voila and fair if necessary.

Thanks,
Frank

Hello Frank,

If anyone knows the NACA/NASA airfoil designation (the number), I have a book that gives the geometry which I will post on this site. I have never checked or even thought about checking my keel or rudder as they look really good. I hope this doesn't lead to a J-24 type of keel fairing debacle.
