Pat,

Is it you that has a personal problem with me ?

Are you practically saying that I do the F12 so I can get back at the H16 ? When you wrote :

It also says the boat must be able to keep up with a Hobie 16. Why does that matter unless you have a personal agenda




Additionally I truly am the father of the F12 design.

The drawing that started all this is mine. The concept design that was depicted was also mine. Phill came with the idea of doing a small catamaran but the basic setup was my reply to his request. This started a few years ago.

Halve the design was already finished before discussion even started on this forum as Phill and I had been working on it over the last few years in between other projects like the F16's and F18's. Some prototyping of hulls had already begun, as Phill mentioned in one of his own posts.

So even if I stop right now, I 'll still be the father of this design together with Phill. There is no way around that.

Maybe you should also consider the fact that many aspects of the design have already been investigated by Phill and myself in the past. That is why I can dismiss a good portion of the suggestions; we already know there is no merit in them.

Why is it that you don't want to make use of these experiences gained, it is only because I happen to be Wouter.

By God it seems like that.

Now this is my last reply to you, I'll ingore you from now on as clearly you have nothing valuable to contribute.

Wouter
