[Giulietta]

Plumper, I understood you, and got what you meant.

That is why I showed the long rudder, because my boat has a very low free board, so with little effort the rais gets under. And the bow isn't down, it does like lik so in that photo, but its far from digging in.

As far as the twin rudders..I don't know what you mean by newr boats, my boat is fairly new, its 1 and half years old now...and I don't want 2 rudders, never did. The twin rudder concept is quite old, not a feature of newer boats.

It all depends on what and how the boat is sailing and the arquitect that concieved the hull. She sails and moves even at 30º heel. And the rudder does show. no problem. Mind you, she never sails that heeled, as in the photo, but if she does, she has a different attitude of other boats.
