I don't seem to be able to find the Supernova Nationals results. Have they been on here? Do I need to log in to the class site to see them? Puzzled/stupid?

Should take you through to the sailwave result sheet.

Great boat, great turnout. Did wonder how the launches of the aero/zero would impact their boat sales, glad to see they are doing ok.

Hartley told me earlier in the year that they could not make enough of the buggers. The class seems to have found a niche......wish we could with Byte c2.........

What they probably haven't told you is that they are also offering very attractive deals to Mk 1 and Mk 2a owners who want to get a new, lighter boat.

Glad they are doing so well. Must have another go in one soon, I couldn't really see what the attraction was last time I sailed one.

On the results list at the bottom, it shows everyone getting 68 points for a non finish, whether DNF or DSQ. Is that normal now (and presumably for a while)? Seems wrong that a retirement scores the same as a disqualified.

The dns/dnf/dsq thing is the default setting in sailwave. We are just trying it at our club and this is one of the things we are going to change when we use it for real. We agree with you Rupert and think people should be rewarded for starting.

and good luck to them for stimulating the class growth by doing fair trade ins and up-sells.

They're well built, and they are sold directly into a vertical market.... club racers.

The Supernova has shown that it is possible to improve a class without killing it. It helps that there was no "gap", where no new boats were sold, which produces a situation where you can either buy a new boat or something costing a tenth the price, but nothing in between. Now, if they'd just offer a choice of sails, one fully battened, the other not, but still the same size, then I'd be tempted. As it is, they appear to have a lovely light wind hull shape with a medium breeze sail put on top. I would say strong wind, but most have been rolled in by then...
