It was a love-hate relationship with the fairing work on these foils the last week or so. This was especially true of the daggerboard. I think the root cause being my lack of experience to know when the foil shape is good and fair enough. Thankfully ... it is mostly love now. I thought I would post some pictures before starting to paint.
Daggerboard
Hanging up I can verify that the board is straight and fair enough.
Trailing edge view.
End view
Rudder
The rudder shape is close to ideal I believe.
End view
The trailing edge of the rudder blade. I'm glad I sandwiched the layer of fiberglass in the foam block. It is visible in these shots and I'm sure it is helping to strengthen the edge.
