Has anyone had any experience with one of these? I'm having trouble with it wanting to head straight into the wind in light winds. I'm going to try to correct this with 2 large weed fins in hopes that they will straighten it's course. If this doesn't work I may take out the us boxes and put in 2 power boxes and I may bevel down the sharp inner rails that are causing the craft to head into the wind. (i think)

Not usually one for these types of things, but think it would make a fun exploring /camping setup if it had stow away holes?
In this thread you want stow-away holes, but in another thread where you have little holes you want to blank them off.
Why not simplify the whole process and use your spare thruster boxes as stow-away locations ?
You could fit in : several matches (may need to be waterproof use if you intend to use them) toothpicks condoms (open packed, roll the other way and Sellotape up) two short tent pegs (one per side) spare rope (4" length) some very small yoga mats ($5 from K-mart apparently)
and that lot sounds to me like the recipe for a great weekend camping trip
The centre of lateral resistance will probably never get very far back anyway as it doesn't look like it would get up on the plane like a conventional board. From the look of the hull, I'd think as soon as the sail is moved aft, it would want to point up into the wind.
Bevelling the rails down would not make a huge difference IMO given the shape of each hull being long and narrow.
