What--you didn't decide to go with the Waco Cootie airfoil? http://www.ae.uiuc.edu/m-selig/ads/afplots/cootie.gif
Okay, yours is prettier. But you'll definitely be stuck with your design, and with your choice of port crab or starboard crab, 'cause that profile on a keel is gonna be a one-way animal. I guess it's better to look good than to sail good. <grin> Umm. you weren't really serious, right? Tim? Seriously-that's a pretty comprehensive website you stumbled across. Thanks for sharing.

Am I thinking through this right? Yes, you are certainly right...once we pick a keel shape, we are definitely stuck with it. I've decided to go with this...I think it's pretty.
