OMG that was spooky - we are not in the same room.... (and I'm supposed to be working, with shouts upstairs to get off facebook.  This isn't Facebook)

We're going to have a mega day to try Icons and Finns & D Zeros and D 1's and maybe Alto and Kite surf kit and Windsurf kit and Stand up paddle kit and there will be how to use a Bar properly instructions and maybe if I can get the relevant permission to sail across the bay to the Varne without getting shot at, a bijou downwinder with a ride on the Light Railway back to your trailer, this only maybe at this stage, it's difficult enough getting all the companies to commit and find a day with the tide out.

£5495 for a D0, I think that'll have Hartley's worried about the Supernova at£5995.

In fairness the Supernova is an established class and the risk averse might just miss out on this deal...

As said elsewhere - you want Icon(s) to come along to your club ?  Just ask.  If your date does not clash with a previously agreed date no problem and if we can't make it we might even trust you with a loan one !

Anyone selling single handers does now have more competition, but The Nova is still good value for a full epoxy boat with technical rig controls and it has a strong class association and an active travellers circuit. Its also a lovely boat to sail, forgiving, refined and works for a massive range of helm weights.

Once the launch offers have gone, prices will settle and it will all then be based on whether the new classes establish fleets as to whether/when they will challenge the Laser,Solo,streaker,Nova classes. 

On the other hand people seeking a new boat now, who are not bothered about fleet sailing in the short term will, understandably , look at the new boats.

Anyone with any savvy would put deposits on both the Zero and the Aero, decide later which to go with, then 'sell' either the position in the queue above list or the actual boat not wanted at a turn which will further reduce the cost of the boat retained.. simples

They are both going to be the proverbial hot cake on a frosty morning, time the season arrives.

" the moo" where are you ?

Grab his hand off now!  Smile
After all you will be the last boat starting in the n12 now. Might as well be last off in a proper fast boat. Wink
