Have you ever seen an A fly!!! Think about it. 165 lbs? 30 foot mast? 150 sq ft sail? It has got to fly. We are just trying to figure out a way to add spin to A2 without having to put holes in hulls like Haken did. I WILL nit do that to that beautiful boat. Yea the 17 with reacher is a HOOT!!! Makes Open racing fun!!!
