Riding my bike past past the Royal Torbay this evening I came across 2 D ones, they look really comfortable with the nicely profiled wings giving plenty of height and looks like a nice hiking position. I was looking for another Finn but does anyone have any comments about comfort or any other aspects of the D one?

If you are on Facebook they have a group I believe. I have sailed a D-One and it is a nice boat. My local pit is way too small for it though.
A couple of people who used to hang around here have them (or have had one) who are probably far better qualified than me to give a view.

I've sailed it and would also Concur it's very comfortable.. a very powerful boat, but well mannered, nicely balanced, definitely designed with a Finn sailor in mind, a dextrous Finn sailor, if such a thing exists.
