You did miss my point. I was illustrating the fact that those preaching "SMOD because everyone's on the same rig" were not all on the same rig when it came down to your boat. I WANT developement. PC isn't the way to go with it. Different sailmakers is. BTW, I'll likely be getting an alluminum rig for mine since it's a more evolved sail plan and mast. Maybe I'm missing your point. I wish we could all talk more in person about this because I think some people miss the meaning of what others are saying because they're reading it instead of hearing it.
