They look great and would be easier to store with that design. I would be curious to see how much that makes a difference between the board dragging more away from the boat versus being towed behind.
My old set of boards is staggered heavily - and seems to pull right alongside the boat (instead of being back further) but they take up too much space, are hard to store, and pull too hard for my liking.
I might try a little less of a stagger on this medium sized set. See what happens.
Cool boards - it's given me some ideas.

Your correct. The back end of my boards are perfectly in line. No staggering like on the front. I placed several holes for the tie up but only tried the second hole so far. Maybe by moving back to the next hold the planer might be more aggressive abeam.
