I would like to hear from anyone (direct e-mail is best) that has built or
paddled the CLC Patuxent 19.5.
- Was it easy to build?
- Is it really 34 pounds?
- Can it be made lighter?
- Does it track well?
- Is it fast?
- Would you consider it to be a decent race boat?
- How would you compare the speed to commercial glass boats?
- other???

I am looking for a racing boat.  No need to carry gear other than the usual
safety stuff.  This boat fitted with flotation bags seems interesting but if
you have any other suggestions please let me know

Tom
