I don't think he continues with: I watch then makes this statement: Perhaps it is slower than it needs be because of the strenght of it's construction? yeah, that's it. certainly not because of a poor design. Actually, I don't doubt either statement oh, he made the statement, alright. What does his math aptitude have to do with anything? you are ****ting us, right? Perry made that 19th century bull**** statement about sailboats hp requirements going otta sight because of "climbing the bow wave" and you have NO IDEA what math has to do with it? It was a math statement, yo-yo. I think Bob's success speaks for itself. yes, he designed a pretty boat, in fact several pretty boats. That they under perform relative to what they might (not my informed opinion but rather the opinion of highly informed and thoroughly trained in the issues) does not in any detract from their prettiness. There is much to like about Perry designs, but no one but a fool worships them |
