G'day,

If by A rig you mean Joe Norwood's (author of High Speed Sailing)
pyramid rig, I have never heard of anyone trying it. Suspect it would
be pretty heavy by the time it was stiff enough.

We have one guy talking about a 16' harry on foils, but he has not got
past talking about it. Making the foils work in both directions is
the tricky part, and may well outweigh any possible advantage.

regards,

Rob
