Thanks Karl,

Up till now I had been working off an old quote sheet for the F16's, so I've updated my info.

I present it here as a comparison and to backup earlier statements :


A Blade F16 in USA during 2007 goes for :

USD 14,515 Boat complete

Which means : Kevlar outer hulls (white), Pentex sails, fully rigged for doublehanded sailing with selftacker and snuffer system included as standard.

With the kevlar hulls included in this quote I have actually no idea what is still left as an upgrades/option !

If the spi package or jib package is removed then that will roughly lower the cost by 1600 USD for each. (=roughly 3200 when both are removed).

Thus making the bare "F16" (no spi no jib) = around 11315 USD. say 11500 USD


The quotes for 2008 will rise a little.
