In that case I can assure you that you are in for some great sailing the next couple of months! I do not know when the season ends (if it ends at all) where you are, but here in Norway the weather has been way too cold for a month now, so the boat is carefully stored in the back yard.

My dad chose to design the self-tacker on his own, and he has just finished a kevlar snuffer-mouth, but we have not been able to test it on the boat yet. We are now using a standard Hobie Tiger snuffer which works quite well, but weighs a ton! Looking back, I think he much rather would have preferred the snuffer system from AHPC...
