While asymmetry appeals to me at a gut level, I don't think anybody has
really explained the reason for it on the HPs. Supposing the wetted
portion the two hulls were identical, what effect would that have on
performance and handling versus the shorter windward hull and longer
leeward hull?   Presumably the slenderness ratio means less drag on the
leeward hull...... It would seem that the fatter windward hull would
benefit even more from length.
