| Post subject: | A anti pitch pole foil from the Hobie Cat Catalogue |
I was perusing the 2011 Hobie Sailing catalogue today when I saw this rather interesting kit (comes in 2's as it is designed for the Hobie 14', 16' Cats, I assume) (Page 18 of the Spring Summer Sailing Parts) ANTI PITCH POLE HYDRO FOIL A simple bow plane that attaches to the bow tang bolt. As the bow starts to dive the bow plane's 55 square inches of surface comes in contact with the water and halts the submerging of the bow before the deck goes under water. Easy to install or remove for racing. Makes sailing a lot more fun for the recreational sailor. 30110 H14/16 Pair I doubt an AI/or TI could be pushed hard enough to pitch pole them, yet this might be a solid way to keep the bow from submarining or at least reduce the amount of spray in your lap Any ideas Matt if this part could be made to fit the AI or TI main hull bows?
