Default Re: NorthRip

Initially looks nice, but after looking a bit it seems to have a number of contradictions. Bow flair looks great to deflect water in nasty conditions, but blunt entry will be like driving a battering ram through a close chop. Likewise, the open transom will let in a lot of water if it really does fish the North Rip on a moon tide and the lack of grab rails will make short work of the dark [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] plexi windscreen in anything but a calm sea.
