>>I thought you had probably read that yourself.

No I hadn't.

>>As far as addressing your other comments...you know where I stand, and I know where you stand on these issues...lets just agree to disagree.

That is alright. I don't have a problem with Bill designs, I'm still looking to get a ride on that RC27 some day that is parked next to our club. No problem there. I'm only reacting to comments that go along the lines of "every other designer is misguided as the right solution is Bills design such and such."



>>I was trying to give the original poster the information he requested...that is, identifying catamaran design problems and their possible solutions. Since Bill Roberts has spent pretty much his whole catamaran design career on this very topic, I thought it would be very informative to do a bit of research on Bill's design history.


Well in that I agree. To a point I must add as sometimes Bill makes a claim that is not realistic. getting Massive leehelm under spi is one example. This may have been true in the past, I don't know, but it isn't now.


>>>With all do respect, until you put in some time on one of his designs (with it properly set up) you may never fully appreciate his genius.

I'm not coming into this unknowlegdable. I know of the attractions of a supercat and of its downsides.
