Difference between false floor and gunwhale height: could present issues... some of the racked boats have pretty low gunwhales, but then for this purpose could you argue the rack represents the gunwhale?

The way around this would be solid "wings"

Very true... the problem is: the cherub In question already has tubular wings

As for the boat being imported: Im not sure which one... I know they guys who've bought her are Alan and Bob but thats about it. Andy_cherub will probibly be able to tell you more as I only spoke to them briefly. They are attacking the issue of getting a UK fleet started pretty hard though with rumors of big-name sponsors lined up for a circuit

Easy to talk about big name sponsors. More difficult to get them to shell out the cash - ask Ms Edwards...
