It was just a quick sketch, similar, but quite different.  Smile
The problem with mine would be the angled direction of travel and the board alignment(s)

The best bit of the new design is the name - Very good   Clap   ( or should that be V good )

Yes I'm sorry about that, victim of my terrible memory I'm afraid, like these guys who I also contacted back then and promptly forgot who they were or how I'd gotten in touch with them last year. My minds like a sieve and there's just a stack of other stuff going through it right now what with taken on loads of new brands to launch at work, no disrespect intended. It's actually a wonder I've gotten this far.

You maybe won't, the boys are very anti the dinghy show, they're logic is unless you have a ready to go full retail spec'd all glitches ironed out show special, all you'll get is ill informed and/or  axe grinding envious criticism which can be self defeating, by its very nature the dinghy show is a class association show of folk trying to attract other folk to their respective classes, not like a proper boat show.

I can see their point, although I'm not doing this for any commercial ends, if it does do what I want it to do, with any degree of alacrity, then maybe there's a market and the boys think someone might take it on.

We'll see, if I've got something I'd like to share, there maybe space on a supplier of bits stand wanting a novelty upon which to display their wares.

One serious consideration is the freeboard. It looks very formula to me Graeme, I'm certainly not in the 'slow' camp, but do remember a formula and proper skiff tends to mean you're on your feet not dragging your butless chapped arse through the waves like the 100

Yes, it's going to be deeper and its going to get D1 style benches,which will come off as and when there's wire possibility.
