In Response To: Strip: Outer Island question (James)

I haven't paddled the Impex version but my OI stripper doesn't turn all that bad ... it's not like it's a dog or anything ... but you're not going to throw it around like a Romany. I'd say it's more of a tracker than a turner. But still ... if I were to build another I'd increase the rocker and decrease the sharpness of the aft section of the keel. If ya wanna add some rocker ... just contact Jay ... he's good folk! Keep an eye on the freeboard if ya add more rocker.
