geez looks like it would be easy to catch your heel in a bit of chop... would be tippy as hell also!

I'd love to give it a go [}:)]

Kingy, sure would love to try it. It's only 2" narrower than than MMSC, and that's a lot easier to ride than I thought, doesn't feel unstable at all.

Coming this way in the near future???? Other wise it'll have to wait for our annual trip up there, not much chance of a strong westerly then, may have to be at Corros. Don't fancy going out the back with it but!!!

I'd say more like mid to late 80s - early Wright Brothers model
Check the position of the mast track!
