Now we're on to something! An "all out performance boat" that looks like a family cruiser.

Hey- you're starting to sound like you're talking about an all-out performance boat, like some of them good guys sail! Try it on your flush deck and report back!

Hey Jerry What are your thoughts on including a deploy able bowsprit?? It would be a sweet gadget to have on the new boat, No messing with the pole when short handed or single handed sailing. AND! It would look so cool with the lapstrake hull, A nice mix of old world sailing and modern sailing technology. I also want to cast in my vote here for the Tall rig, as well as a full battened main as standard equipment.And in MY dreams a carbon fiber mast Sweeeeeet!!!!!!! While yer add it, How about a Melges style Bulb keel set-up.
