It's a MIRACLE! That makes two new bona-fide Cboats introduced inside of a year (Robson's Finkenmeister and this one).

I would call this miracle hard work...

it has taken 5 main prototypes with numerous variations of the same idea. And this has taken too many working hours. And a lot of money from my own pocket


and secondly please do not get too exicited. C- boating aint mainstream yet

I have seen finkenmaister allready early 2003 and this final one none except me has seen 2003 . So it goes to 2004 desings..



how long it took from atom to finkenmaister. maybe 4 years... it will quit after this for next 10 years

I made an proto which has this playboat hull combined with an open c- deck. And if there is enough interest we can go try to make that aviable too somehow.. it is grazy...

I'm not an open boater so i hav ereally nothing serious to say. i was last on 2003 worlds ... well my friend has forgotten the straps home and it was a nice swim for me ... he got disgualified because missed his heat ... too bad Armin...

more later ...
