[quote=smfinley]You will love having wings on your boat. I love them on my boat. They are great for cruising, but are also a lot of fun while on the wire and flying a hull. Not sure on the Nacra wing design, but being on the wire 2-3 feet off the water before flying a hull makes hull flying that much more exciting.
One down side is you can't fly a hull as high since the leeward wing hits the water. Another is the added weight of the wings, but to me they are worth every lbs they add. Being on the wire on a wing can also be a little more tricky, since if you slip you have a longer fall, you also run out of real estate quickly if you bury a hull. Kind of like a H16, except with a H16 it is a short stop from the tramp to the hull.
enjoy the wings and make sure to get the wife on the boat as soon as possible so she can see the benefits of them. My wife loves them. In addition to comfort while sailing, when there isn't much wind they give her a great place to sunbath while on the water.[/quote]
