Rare Bird updates?   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #5047 of 6621 |
Hi,

I think it has been about 6 months since Rare Bird was sold. Any updates from the new owner? Videos? Sailing speeds/conditions? Polar diagrams? Photos?

Everyone in the group (I am guessing) is anxious for any real world reports on harryproa performance. Real measurements have been hard to come by and there has been much animosity (mostly in other forums) because of it. 

Fess up!

With all due respect,

- Gardner Pomper
