Design 2279 Agena

This certainly looks like a rule beater to me. I haven't come across any design like it in the files. She has a daggerboard that is deployed through a lead keel "shoe". The objective was to have her rate as a centerboarder under I.O.R., which was successfully done and for this she received a favorable rating. Looking at this daggerboard "schematic" there is an end-plate at the bottom of the board which is also made of lead (500 lbs).



We don't know a lot about this boat. I can see from looking at the sail plan that there is a Concordia emblem at each end of the cove stripe (star + moon). The files say she was built by Concordia and Afterguard. Could Afterguard mean the owner and his crew finished the boat? She is built of fiberglass and was launched in 1979.

Here are the plans.
