Thanks Matt. Hope others chime in on the topic if they know wether the other brands/boats have a CE certificate.
Timbo,
CE is a certificate of conformity to certain standards (stability, documentation, intended use etc.). Within the european union a company can not sell a boat for recreational use without a CE certificate.
Holger, you are actually right. I checked it now, and pure racing craft dont need to go trough the CE process. It have to be marked an sold as a racing craft to be compliant tough. I dont know the details in this, but if the F-16 is a pure racing craft it looks like there is a loophole available?
