Default RE: oriental dragon

Thank you for the info Kent You mentioned that your stinger and sm. rudder are to be cut down, to what length are you looking at. I read some where about that the stinger length should be 10 to 13% the length of the hull. I stand to be corrected if Iam getting mixed with some thing else.
Also Kent what's the COG that you are planning to use.? I also read that you can go by the theory of 28% of the hull length for the COG. If I'am worng please correct me.
I have just about finished my 25" Boogieman boat using those theories and the ballance is great.
If any one else have different way's of working these measurements,please post, as there are a lot of us just getting into the FE boats that would be interested.
Cheers Wayn
