I gather centerboard trunks can be a problem, especially on wooden boats, but I've always thought they make sense if you're planning to sail to a place with shallow water. Close as you can come to the best of both worlds.

I've never sailed with leeboards, but that also sounds like a good idea. Herreshoff designed a couple of boats with leeboards.
