Plus from a practical standpoint the humpy foredeck was a PITA--the boat could only be carried upside down on the top rack on my home made double deck rack system for trailering boats to regattas ( the boat wouldn't fit in the bottom position on the trailer and I couldn't take Gypsy on the roof racks I have for the station wagon because the hump touched the windshield). Also the hump took up too much room when trying to stack and store boats in the shed for the winter. The next time I have to move that boat it will be a pleasure rather than a pain. The flip side is, of course, that the boom WILL be lower when sailing but I'm used to that on my other boats.George Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15375041586503979232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-838085020802983098.post-1080842409398750452012-11-12T06:38:23.896-08:002012-11-12T06:38:23.896-08:00I know nothing about sailing or boats, but I do kn...I know nothing about sailing or boats, but I do know that the hump was....less than graceful.Gunnar Berghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17451985764040900726noreply@blogger.com
