Please tell me it's all a joke. A cross between a Fireball and an infants toilet training seat with a kite.  Shoot me now!  Then there's the CAD renders, who is the 9 year old who got a CAD package for Christmas?  9 pages of drivel humouring a man who, by his own admission, can't sail, yet believes that he can develop a class of dinghy with performance characteristics that have eluded all of the great designers.  Deluded springs to mind.

Atrocity.

Um, the CAD renders have been done by an actual pro with a decent track record, commissioned by GRF, anono-troll

Nope, genuine moron troll, with limited humour.

No need for me to generate anti bodies just yet, have nothing to sell.

"I have nothing to sell."

The delusion continues.

No offence meant to Dan, Punk is an interesting concept, just surprised that he has got involved with V Spin unless of course it was a commission at a price.

If this boat is ever built I would like to provide safety cover for the maiden voyage, the comedy factor will be well worth the cost of my petrol to the venue.  Priceless.

Slightly off topic, what on earth was that shoe box thing washed up on a beach.  No, don't tell me, was it a cat-surfer?  I'm not sure how much more of this I can take! 

An old windsurfer, suppose things are starting to make sense.

Right, you're on, thanks for that we need some help, we'll cover the cost of the petrol, we'll tell you where to be and when.

Of course you'll show up now won't you?


So back to the progress, bit more over the weekend and the Drawings have gone off to the millers for pricing.
Hulls tweaked, wetted area reduced a bit, racks added, pole angles increased, there's some righting moment on this beauty, even a little slip of a lightweight is going to hold onto some massive ragtime, those lard boys won't even hear me coming past....

So it's getting close to crunch time.

Easily cured with inflatable racks if indeed I decide to go entirely with racks, the end game is to trapeze, the racks were always meant to be demountable.

Er I don't do 'hiking' for all I'm worth, very ungainly un-gentlemanly, not cool at all.
