  (off-group) Nope.  I don't think I'll bother going that far.  I'll give Rob the specs I want and let him and the engineer help with the details.

Hi,

Thanks! That's cool!

Have you happened to run across any info on how to calculate the
center of effort of a sail? I have also been thinking about sailplans
and am trying to figure how much headsail I can have before putting
the COE too far forward for the ballestron rig to weathercock.
