Make that 'were' according to info last weekend. I think you'll find that the Alto pole is a quite different animal to the 400/4000 poles with their very limited angle of swing which is of relatively little value, I'd agree. Edited by Medway Maniac |

They changed manufacturer AGAIN? In fact, did Rondar even build one hull?
4000 and 400 are both Phil Morrison designs. |

Josh (MRJPBUZZ585), knows more than me on this, but i think they got the prototypes out but the new centreboard casing cracked, and they never managed to get out a decent boat

Thanks guys, now the thread has charged off discussing sprits I'll take it it that the boat is a Beta. Edited by alldownwind |

Whats an alto. I did a quick Google and it brought up something which looked like a osprey with a Asymmetric spinni. Does any one know more about this? Will they be at the dinghy show this weekend?

Have been accused of selective myopia occasionally. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder is the saying, I think. |

I'm inclined to agree i like the look of the Alto! It does exactly what it says on the tin, i just think it neds some proper marketing support and or money chucked at it! |
