It really is a very good looking boat and is fast too in the right hands.
The Viper with Bundy was crazy fast as well, there wasnt too much wind but they where faster then quite a few F 18 s (elapsed).


Ten, Huh?
According to this post on SA #4 just hit the water.

No 4 is on water; damn fast that lady !!
we got her two days ago and sailed for about 10h since from 5 to 20 knots. Our first impression: never ever pull the gennacker below 200kg. she really flies and sometimes jumps above the crest. We feared about pitchpoling after we pased 28knots, she sings like a mairmaid. but she's forgiving and gracefull. The carbonspar opens in gusts by itself. she's extremly manouverable and as Macca already experienced she loves sidesteps. The hull moves faster sideways as your feet can follow.

thank you Nacra for that big boys toy !!

If a man is to be obsessed by something.... I suppose a boat is as good as anything... perhaps a bit better than most.
