You completely missed the point there. The OD idea is LESS cost because an OD class doesn't have to buy the latest greatest stuff every other regatta.
No you have to just buy a new set of foils, a new platform and sails. A huge saving!
Interesting theory you have on quality as well. Generally in a production setting you get more consistant quality, not less. You learn how to make things right.
Is that why Aussie home built hulls are still winning titles, in open and home built classes, 15 years after building and consistant "quality" "built right" production hulls are land fill at the same age?
Again thanks for the chuckle..
