August 25, 2008.

Catawba River, Lake Rhodhiss.
Launched at 7:20AM. Overcast, dead calm, 67oF.

Sea trials with the skeg and improved GPS software.
GPS: Garmin GPSMap 76Cx, internal antenna. Trackpoint interval: 10s.

This was a three mile out and back, from Castle Bridge to the cut bank prominent to the west. The outbound leg was with the skeg; inbound leg without. I picked a range that was long enough to collect good data but short enough that fatigue wouldn't dominate. I rested seven minutes at the turn and ate a PowerBar breakfast there.

Impressions: 1) The skeg works. The bow does not wander at all between strokes. 2) It's only slightly misaligned, but that's too much. Stop paddling and the boat swings to the right. Paddling at speed requires considerable extra effort on the right side to resist this. The effect is much stronger at higher speeds. At a fast cruise, almost all propulsive effort is on the right side. I quickly shifted the paddle to extend 2 feet or more to the right. Left strokes felt like little more than trim. It would have been very tough to turn left at anything more than a drift. An hour and a half after landing, I'm sore, and I think it's owing almost entirely to the uneven effort required by the misaligned skeg. Retracting the skeg at the turn produced an immediate and dramatic effect. The boat felt (and was) much freer, felt lighter, and was instantly more familiar. Give the skeg another try after trimming.

Mind games: speeds improve if the GPS is visible. I had it out of sight in the deck bag on the way out. On the way back it was on the bottom of the cockpit where I could peek to see how I was doing.

Note the effect of cutting the point too closely on the way out (the more northern track on the map above; the tabulated data beginning at 1.30 miles). Speeds dropped as the water shallowed out. I could plainly feel the drag of shallower water before the rightside paddle began to touch bottom. The data (gathered at 10s intevals) tell all:
