I hate its so darn heavy too. have only broken a spin pole and that was because a stupid knot pulled through. other than that, all has been very well. I love the way it handles on the water, so fast through tacks and gybes, very smooth through waves. Just wish I wasnt the only f-18 in the pond, but all that is set to change

Posts: 2,921 Michigan | I have a long list of things I would change about my boats, but I couldn't imagine owning a different boat than the Blade. I love the fact I can pull it up and down the ramp easily and how it feels to sail solo with the spin. I love the fact I don't need crew but can sail with someone else if I want. Wish it was a wee bit more durable (trade off with weight) and had a little more bouyancy up front.
