S&G: Shearwater 17 skeg?

Obviously handling can vary by individual and boat trim, but since I'm in the building stage, this is the easiest time
to install a skeg whether needed or not. The question is, should I install?

It would seem to fall into the parachute category. Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
