[quote=MN3]I have no idea what hobie did to reinforce the hull, deck and internal support for that wing cavity but it must be pretty substantial
i would be VERY weary trying to duplicate the h17 hull to wing cavity assembly -
this is an area that often fails on h17's and needs repair to make the boat whole
I mean if you are a master epoxier ... than anything is possible so don't let me stop you but ... well you know
My wings fold in for transit - note that i have welded alum tubes into the beam to act as the pivot - not required but will eliminate worming of the pivot holes in the beam and adds structure and strength and stiffness to the entire beam/boat
[quote]The cost of either way is sub $100. If I cut down the wings I won't be ale to sit/trap past the rear beam.[/quote]
why would you ever need to have weight past the rear beam (unless racing in heavy air)?[/quote]
