[quote=smfinley]Great boat, with good support still from Aquarius Sails. Boat specific parts are likely expensive but mostly available. 12ft beam makes setup slow, but also makes it very stable. They had a standard and tall rig available, can't remember mast length difference. Very powerful, so I agree not a beginner boat. I learned to trapeze on one and it was so easy, like trapezing on a sidewalk compared to a H16 due to the rounded hull shape.
They are a wetter boat than most when the wind picks up. It is a predictable boat as the wind picks up, don't try to pitchpole and lifts a hull fairly smoothly. Would sail with 3-4 people regularly with no problem, but solo in the right conditions it is amazing.
They can be tricky to right, but ours had shroud extenders to help with that and could be done with 2 people just took extra time to get ready to right it. Also had to climb up the tramp to access the extended 12' in the air (rope ladder built into the underside of our tramp)
Hope that helps.[/quote]
