I'm sorry to say that there is nothing there that I can use.

Define clunky, especially in relation to a paper tiger that is presumably not cluncky ?

What does he feel is blunt that should be sharp. The hulls are actually much narrower then the paper Tiger and the bow profile is sharper then the Paper Tiger as well.

Also I'm bet he will be on there is his girlfriend want one. Remember the Ford Ka or the Smart car automobile. Males hated it but Girls loved it, the car went on to be a succes.

Besides styling have not been performed on the design yet. That is mostly the smart use of colours and some cool fittings. First we need to get the concept right and this is a concept drawing. It must be appreciated that way.

Also ask your son how he feels about the Laser-1 ? What does he think about the Hobie 14, wave or Dragoon. That would also be an interesting comments. I'm sure many don't appreciate the fact that there are some very tight design goals for this craft. It must cost nearly next to nothing, be easy to homebuild and very quick to rig and unrig and not be in the way when stored in the garage or the attic. Sure enough he want to have a smaller copy of the newest A-class but it will be many years of bring the newspaper around before he or his parent can affort that. In the end, the decision will be between not sailing, sailing the F12 or sailing a more expensive larger cat like the paper Tiger, H16's or F16's. It can never be totally perfect.

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate every comments that I get but in order to make effective use of it, it must be well defined, rational and elaborated upon.
