I'm hardly touchy - that would imply I was in some way reluctant to go this way. Far from it ...
The move is truly excellent for both Cirrus and Hartley. More importantly it is great news for the class and the deal is exactly the one I sought personally. As an individual I will still remain very active within the class - as I was in the previous years before direct involvement. It also makes a considerable lot of sence for Hartley who have robust plans for class growth. They were also the preferred 'suiter' from my point of view. But all this, as publically revealed so far, is just not exactly 'news' anymore .... but I guess some forum contributors, very much like the tabloids, like a 'good' story to run and run... and run. Even when the facts has been publically known for months now..... Time to move on. Edited by Cirrus - 26 Jan 16 at 6:46pm |

Certainly sounds like Hartley Boats will be building a lot of different classes. Is this good or bad? Good. I guess, as they seem to be stepping in to save classes that need help.

Blaze and Supersofa. A conflict of interest, or does a set of wings make all the difference?

I guess they're covering all the angles, what with building Contenders too.

That's what it says on the Contender website. http://www.sailcontender.org.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=700:newcontender-builder&catid=1:latest-news&Itemid=63

Hartley have a bold business model, presumably the Contender will be new ground, since they won't be a sole supplier, be interesting to see how they get on.
