It's a lucky thing that the Brit boats have no electrical systems because we'd never get them started! (Lucas: Prince of Darkness) cya This is the kind of thing I'm talking about. British boat owners having way too much fun with maneuvers that the rest of us would never attempt. I have enjoyed my American boats. If they made them stronger, stiffer, more rigid, with a skeg rather than a rudder, with waterproof hatch covers, more abrasion resistant, with waterproof bulkheads, with a lower rear deck (so I can layback), with less windage and strong enough to sit on, then I would not be shopping for used British boats. British versus American? Vive la difference! Vive la choix!
