The Charlie I remember was only up to my elbow.

After watching Lionel Messi play, I realize I need to sail harder.

First in the States?

I'm excited we've got another design on the water. Competition between designs has no downsides.


I'm boatless.

Yup I have to agree with Charlie he was past your elbow at age 10 JW LOL but hey Charlie you can single hand that thing, think about it a team of one, skipper and crew al in the same and when we see you yelling at your self we won't have to wounder and your bride to be won't be well she can sail with someone else and there won't be any disputes at home HUM just a thought ! ! ! ! !

Sailed it for a bit in a building sea breeze today. Nice and smooth in the flat water behind Key Sailing! Lots of stretching, tuning, tweaking going on as Lambert took it out afterwards in a bit more wind. He was able to give Joseph some good pointers on working the shape of the main (that square top is huge!). Joseph and I have been on a Viper last few months, and report is no problem with the bows pushing it downwind. Flat shape at the transom is like a freakin paddle board - engage plaining Mr. Sulu!
