yer maybe.  it does look fun but if u want a singlehanded trapeze boat with an assy there is the 700.mps and they look so much better than the minging vortex.

Maybe that's just their strategy... if it stops selling stick an assy on it and see if anyone buys one?

the hurricane 5.9 is in my opinion a under rated boat in todays market,

it has so much going for it, cheap 2nd hand prices, great build quality, large nationals (50), great fleet, option to go 3 sail and stay same handicap + many many more!!
lifes to short to sail slow boats!

very tasty photo, cheers rick

whip many boats on the fetch as they plane so easily.   Mylars  should save the class.  I had one and may buy one again as the mylars are cheap and last longer tthan dacron. Need tight leeeches- as with any boat though

Megabyte

laser EPS - too many build issues

RS200- many say it is nicer than the 400- used to  eat them in the tasar though

did I forget to say 59er....
