I'm not at all versed in sail rigs, Balogh appears to be well tested with the lee board off the outrigger arm, I'm sure that simplifies attachments. I think there's could be something that could be finetuned about that rig, it stalls on each tack (everyone says that's the way multihull boats are??) and the Feathercraft rudder will CHURN up the water attempting to hold course. It just seems to me that anyone spending $1200 for a sailrig only to replace the rudder shortly thereafter is getting the short end of the stick that friendly customer service shouldn't have to compensate for.
