In a previous thread on yacht "design" that mast might have been described as "stolen" rather than "traditional." :D
I see a lot of neo but where's the classic?
Geez, talk about thin skin, why the sarcasm? There was no challenge involved. You stated that a 2-person experience was better, I told you how...
So if there is more why are you so defensive about sharing the information? You might have had some good leads already if you had provided all the...
