That's an encouraging outlook Darryl, I hope you're right, not for any other reason but that I think the 14ftr is a great boat and very much overlooked due primarily to the 'bigger is better' mentality of the average male. Silly thing is, they get the big boat, it costs a shirtload of mula, it's a beatch to keep at home, a beast to trail, gut busting to rig, launch and retrieve, and when the crew doesn't turn up they're screwed. Would they go back to a 14 to enjoy their sailing again? Uh Uh! Not big enough. Go figure. Bern
