ET,

It would be interesting to know just what was meant by "fwd skeg".
That sail is so far fwd that the fwd skeg could be fwd of the mast and the aft one could be fwd of the cockpit and it should work as described.
OTOH, I assume the aft skeg is in the normal place???
Or is the fwd skeg aft of the mast but fwd of the CP of the sail?
