Hi Thom

You are right, waiting is a pain - but I knew it would not be easy from the begining.

On the other hand, the good news is that the delay is the only bad news...

When I visited the shipyard in January and saw the construction, I preferred not to complain. It was clear that they were doing a very good job and that the delay was caused mainly by their comitment to execute everything exactly as specified.

Don't be fooled by the conventional appearance of the boat and the choice of conventional glass/foam for the hull- its engineering is very sophisticated - very frequently brilliant.

It suffices to say that at least 5 of the features of the Catri are now shared with the F-33 - but not with previous models.

Cheers,
