name one boat designed specifically for the 104 class... I can think of boats modified for the class. Hell I could modify a F18 or A to fit the class. Actually perhaps all F18s should be modified to fit the 104 class!! Just think how fast the 104 would grow then!!
As for the clap trap
"Ask the manufactures who do make the boats at min weight and find out how expensive it is for them and how hard it is to achieve. Sure you can build a boat lighter but how durable would the boat be. What is its competitive life span before it gets soft? Carbon masts, foils, stocks, tiller cross arm booms, carbon or Kevlar in the hulls ect are significantly more and to say they don’t is kidding yourself."
Next time I come across a Taipan 4.9 I should wonder if Im looking at a myth or boats that are competitive for 15+ years. Pray tell how much carbon is in a Taipan? What none? amazing!!
Next time I look at a home build ply Blade I will stop and awe at the complexity of a 50 year old technology.
Next time I get to glimpse a Stealth, I should bow to how wonderous the builders are.. Ok the Stealth company does a better job than any F18 builder, no question but really who couldnt? Then F18s will morph into 104s soon anyway right?
Or I could just accept your really really biased and this blinkers you.
So the crapola you try and spread to over compensate for lard is, just that crap.
So serious question.. When you making your F18 into a 104 and show us all the way?
