Mike,
You have the Blaze, a baby brother called the Fire, why not rename the larger Halo Inferno and keep a theme going?

I thought it was a theme.... a ghetto punishment, 'Halo' alternative name for necklacing someone.

Fully agree and it really was considered for the large sail option but ultimately was not chosen.  Give us a bit of time .....

Inferno can be the kite option boat that GRF wants...

I think it might be best to wait until we can have a look at the likely handicap number as predicted in the new 'GRF-N' system first. (you know that NEW handicap number system on the 'other' thread).  Might want to see just what we can do within the 'new formula' before we commit.... and submit a few 'trial' or 'test' configurations first ......  Wink

Stranger ideas have been suggested though .....  who knows but it just would not be a Blaze !

Hi All

There will be a 'try-a-Fire' and 'Try-a-Halo' opportunity at Hunts SC on Sunday .... And we will even bring a Blaze sail along as well if you still have not tried that !  The conditions will of course be totally suitable for nearly all as well ....    

If you are local I'm sure Jeffers (Paul) will be happy to advise and/or you are also welcome to contact us at Cirrus in advance if you would like to book a slot.  Smile

respect for making it very bloody obvious from the shore which boat someone is sailing - no rig switching 'issues', just BOGOF opportunities.
