Default What's the Purple one?

Thanks Doug, I figured you would know.


Actually, I didn't know right off the top of my head, it
looks like a previous generation Moth. But I had a good
idea... at one point I was looking into importing RS boats
as a way of jump-starting US sailing with skiffs.

BTW there is a similar US made boat, a bit heavier & slower
but also bigger & roomier, called a Raider.


Did you see the Hoot?

I did not, regretfully. They were going to have a public
demo day and I would have loved to see & sail it, but was
leaving SanFran the day before.

I think thats going to be what I buy. Do not have the time to build a
Swift solo. They still have a few kinks, but hopefully they will start
shipping boats soon.


A Swft Solo or a Hoot? If I spot a Swift for sale I will
probably buy it. It's a much better boat than the 29er.
