You mean, you want a heroic ode, based on the poor elephant seal,
cumbersome and easily attacked by vicious sealers on land, speedy
and graceful on/in the water, but nevertheless doomed by its
liberal outlook and engineering limitations?

The issue isn't repeatability at all. You're merely trying to shift
goalposts. Your Ella is a racing boat and built like one - minimum
weight and what you see WRT flexing is what you'd expect. As a class
they break in really bad weather because they're outside their design
envelope.



Was it so bad a voyage/tour of duty, Peter, that even on your
return you insist on clubbing insensible elephant seals?
