Flex/stiffness

With blades it’s simple---no flex!

Centreboards, however should have a certain amount of flex—like a wing—to give the best lift and recovery.

Amount depends on the type of boat, crew weight and type of rig.

These issues we are happy to discuss before settling on the construction of the foil.
