Soon as the technical drawing is out I'll post it. I believe all of this is also going to current racers too.

Cheers, James

Well done Simon, good to have some proper communication for once, keep it up!!

Don't forget the drawings only apply to new boats built this year.

I thought it only applied to new boats that had the deposits paid after 1st Jan, which means new boats from 2014 onwards!

Gonna be hard pushed to build a new boat for this season that conforms to the new rules, when it's nearly the end of Feb and it's still a closely guarded secret!

Don't get me wrong, I'm still not happy with how it was handled at all, but praise where praise is due, I'm glad to see someone communicate with everyone at long last!

There's still a lot wrong with how it was handled in my eyes and only time will tell if the communication continues, but if I just stay on a downer no matter what we'll never get anywhere!
