Hi fellow builders,
I am starting a Quattro 16 build whilst waiting for available facilities for my larger Gypsy. My question is whether a small daggerboard in each hull would be more efficient than the small keels? Is the performance benefit going to be worthwhile?
Thanks in advance, Dave

It would be more efficient, but not worth doing. After all many beach cats rely on skegs for windward work, and the Q16 skeg is deeper than many
