I'll be sailing Aventura with Jimmy from Newport to Annapolis the week after next. Will report back.

There is no protection on those two rudders how can you use it safely in ice?

I suspect the answer is to provide better steerage when gusts cause high heel angles. Aventura has done well in ice - see the videos on Jimmy's website. I'll ask him his thoughts on rudder protection if I remember.

Still if I had money to burn Would get a K&M with a lift keel.

Moody made some very nice hydraulic lifting keel boats.
