I googled the Cadet and the first link was to Phill's website. He even talks about building it there.

Phill is one of the ones wanting to do this, so I assume he knows why.


The Cadet certainly proves this approach works (at least in AU). The choices of home build boats there is astounding.

What I see in comparison to the Cadet
the F12 has;
no trapeze, no side stays, no fore stay,
no separate downhaul, no mast track and halyard,
no jib and halyard

...a very simple, and short, setup time. Hopefully that is an appealing goal to US homebuilders. A boat that can be on the water in a flash.

I wonder what does the Cadet weigh?
