Integrity is its own reward.
i will seek this "Robbie" and company out.
This is really excellent excellent excellent advice, your (pissing contest aside).
It is really unbelievable that i could learn so much in a few days, from interested parties across the board.
Dunno this Robbie fellow as yet, but do wonder if he would appreciate either side of this dispute


Robbie is the most experienced multihull sailor most of us know on both "Close Course" and "Open Course" sailing races ... he has sailed on more types of cats then anyone else I know ... knows the boats in&out ... and if you want to learn, you try to learn from the best ... didn't you train w/ Robbie? Why may I ask?

So ... You may have trained w/ Robbie and learned how to sail ... but it is obvious you don't KNOW Robbie and Jill ....you didn't learn the more important and harder lessons .... how to be a "Corinthin Sailor/Gentleman of Sports". I would suggest the next time you have the pleasure of being in Robbie's presence .... just watch him, how he conducts himself, treats others, answers questions ... those are the more important lessons(of life)to be learned, son.

You are a "Champion" not just because you win the race ... but also because of how you conduct yourself ... and Robbie is a CHAMPION on and off the water ...

Sales Lesson from my Father: Never sell something that DOES NOT fit the application ... because when it fails, the customer will not be back but will take their business elsewhere .... Robbie and Jill have been in the multihull industry long enough that I'm quite sure they know and follow this philosophy, or else "Fun in the Sun" would have been out of business long ago ...

... so therefore I must ask you son, which one of us was making the ASSumptions ????


My apologies to you, MR Hips for this digression in your thread ... but what can you do w/ youngsters? ... and I stand by my advice, you should contact Robbie

Thanks, Andrew and Wouter for your posts ... Wouter, it is good to hear from you, as you were/are missed ...(but we will not admit to it)
