The Wildcats that arrived in the first container had certificates from the loft for the sails. The boats had never been assembled before, so there were no certificates for the platform. We observed a fairly wide range in boat weights among the three that came to F18s.

For Eileen, I have to ask what "a great price" is?

A 'wide range'? Could you be a bit more precise?

Thank you Rich. I will have to pass right now as I just bought a boat and it is really starting to work for us. I hope that those boats are bought by sailors from our area. They must be nice sailing boats, that is all I have heard about them.

Later,
Dan
