thanks, will follow up. getting very interested in
speed. check out "sailrocket" for my dream boat
(google it). funny how several groups throwing
millions at the project can't beat a heavy weight
irish mug on a sailboard :-) who did 48.7 knots.
anyway keep me in mind.i want to wow them on oneida
lake in upstate new york. so a rave or a trifoiler
would be great.
thanks again.
mike
ps: i am new to this forum. anyone who wants to direct
me to how to deal with this is VERY welcome. i don't
even know how to post, i am only replying and think i
may be in a specialty forum not a general one. bear
with me i'll learn, as old as i am.
