Have to admit, the rigging isn't the tidyest i've seen, but the build quality of the boat looks great, the real indicator being the bits you can't see without a lot of crawling about up front.

Nice lightweight construction too.

Unfortunately being a boatbuilder doesn't mean that If I build myself a boat it's free, and to build a high performance 24/26 would probably cost me more than I've paid for the Spectre!

If you look at the Miami thread you'll see video of us out in it, so yes it is complete and ready to go!

Now quit talking about it and go and buy a rib!
