My both sailing canoes have leeboards. Older (ACA) has only one and it works well. Second (5M/C) has two leeboards and I have had problems to get them work because of glassfibre structure - I did not get (yet) good friction to keep leeboard down in the water (I will put rubber between leeboard and hull). Now I am planning the third sailing canoe and I would like to build it with centreboard.
I got picture of the pivoting dagger board - which looks like interesting option for sailing canoes. Never seen this type of construction before - I would like to know if it really works (if it is paractical) or is it just a nice design idea ..
