Posts: 1,203 uk | Ian Farrier has confirmed that sales of his plans for home/custom build will cease on 25th September. Bit of a surprise, but prodution boats are taking priority. His support for plans already sold and those purchased in the interim is still assured Get in quick if you want your own F-32, F-82 or F-85 plans

Posts: 757 japan | the f22 plans have been for sale for 3? years now but now almost all the molds are done for a 100 or 200 boat production run from his new factory in nz
the other, bigger boats, like the f32, will be available from approved builders world-wide
answering questions and providing plans for custom variations by home builders seems to be taking time than he feels could be better spent on volume production issues
keep in mind he has a huge investment in the new factory and it's all dead capital until he starts selling boats from it

After all, its not easy, banging your head against some mad buggers wall.

Posts: 6,049 Sebring, Florida. | Unfortunately, Delta doesn't go to New Zealand, only Syndney out of LAX. I'd love to get down there, heard great things about it. One of our pilots retired about 5 years ago and moved there, permanantly, I think his wife was from there. I'm going to try to track him down and see how that's working out. Maybe I could cary one back, in many small pieces, as 'cary on baggage' if I make enough trips to SYD and then go visit him! Here you go Jay, you, Mom and the girls would look pretty good on that F9A (scroll to the bottom pict.) http://www.f-boat.com/pages/trimarans/index.html

Radar is for pussies anyway, real men don't need it.
It flew in, it'll fly out. Fill it up, let's go flyin'!
