Hi All, probably this is best addressed to Matt and Nick.  Seeking help
regarding Tim's later modifications that I think Nick mentioned in an earlier
post?
[Sorry to hear about Tim's illness btw]; I guess he's no longer in business?
I wonder if either of you have any detail about his mods, especially the
method he used to attach sponsons?  I am familiar with his principles,
especially the need to set up the boat for sponson use BEFORE you try to use
them at sea.  My interest is in how Tim worked out how to secure them using
straps under the hull.
Cheers, PeterR.
