Having seen the AO F14 in the flesh, both under construction and on the water sailing against the 16s and 18s, I can confirm that it is an impressive little machine. If not for personal business commitments, Darryl would have received an order from me by now.
Why don't you blokes in the US, who recognise the many attributes of the AO, get together and organise a container load (say 4 or 6 boats) to be shipped over. I am sure that prospective builders will sit up and take notice once you start winning races on line honours and yardstick against the big guys. I believe all the AO needs is this initial foothold in the US for it to take-off, subject to the presence of a local builder and the appropriate marketing.
