Who said "my boat is the only boat?" I think at lot of positive opinions were voiced along with some questions on the position of the product in the market and also if the product would have long term interest for buyers.
Could this kayak be an entry into sailing? Sure, why not. no arguements there. Is it the future of sailing? Probably not.
The only 'my boat is the only boat' attitude is coming from the Hobie only people. I think that people here are pretty inclusive, not exclusive and I guess there is still a backlash against the Boat X edict.
