For shure the taureau would be more dry and light than a prelude, but is the concept I can't understand, why don't make it C1, due certainly it's not an OPEN boat... The prelude is quite heavy yes, but I like it. Anyway I'm thinking about the new robson home in armelite, it's expensive but it's only...
