Default Titanium hull?

Because you own a piece of junk. Me and my Cal 20 could outsail
you no matter what you sailed, however.

Yeah, don't do that. Don't invest in things might turn into a commodity.

Yeah you're right, a journal like Scientific American is probably
published by a Larry Flint type and bound to be written by Mad
Magazine dropouts. And if the price of Titanium is suddenly dropped to
1/5 the current price, I'm sure we'll all just keep on choosing steel
and aluminum for making our machines and our toys.


Didn't you ****ing hear me say that cheap titanium would benefit the
tool industry? Dumbass!

I still don't think titanium will ever be cheaper than fiberglass.

And I never said it would replace fiberglass, but would be an option
that might even be less costly than aluminum.
And don't be so sensitive, it's out of character for you..

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut it **IS* miserably difficult to weld, so who
cares.

Check out Scientific American (Oct 2003) article "Alchemy of a
Supermetal" A new process for wresting pure titanium from ore may
soon make the affordable titanium hull and other sailboat components a
reality. The pure form of the ninth most common element on earth is
expensive now only because of the chemical reduction process currently
used to extract it. A few bright metallurgists at Cambridge have
found a significantly easier way to produce it. The challenge now is
to produce it in commercial volume. Might be worth investing.

U.K. Defense Ministry and U.S. Government for starters.
It is *currently* difficult to weld, but the welding industry has
overcome similar challenges in the past.
Success of the Cambridge process would mean a profuse supply of
Titanium. Abundance of any resource tends to lead to creative ways of
using it.
