Second 20% project

In this project, I will try and explore more topics of sailing. More specifically, sail aerodynamics and shape, hull shape, and racing tactics/ advanced boat handiling. I want to find the optimal sail shape and the advantage of different types of sails and materials. Finding different racing tactics will help me this summer and show me what I can do to be better. I can consult Clay Johnson and Rob Seidelman, they are both excellent sailors, they own the local sailing stores. Clay Johnson has a very impressive record, and was one point away from being on the U.S Olympic sailing team for the summer 2012 olympics.
