Hi, The topper class just seems to be doing better and better in racing and production, how long do you think this class will keep on growing for? |

Actually if I can interrupt the chorus of praise, I think it is the worst boat I've ever sailed. I know they are cheap, robust and have introduced a lot of people to sailing but if I never sail one again it will be too soon. What's with that square bow? Does anyone who has sailed anything else really like them? |

yeah they are like surfboards in all but name and are too unstable, sailing downwind is more of a balancing act than unicycle riding and they're a smod
