I sailed around the world on a Halberg Rassy. We were knocked down with no sail up in the Pacific Ocean – hurricane force. The steering quadrant (solid bronze) broke sailing afore the wind. I am only alive due to a half decent emergency tiller that is long enough to steer a large vessel though 15m waves.

Great to hear you guys talking about the Kraken at the round table. Only disappointing part of production is the 3 year wait to obtain a new boat. We have spoken about the K44 and I was sure last year that the plug was already being formed however Dick our recent texts indicated that it is still several years away. I assume I have understood this correctly.

I love listening to all the videos this guy is in. But my biggest question is why you guys don’t make a fool keel, And what would be the advantages and disadvantages if you did?

I’m always impressed by Dick Beaumont’s passion and his “ if can we build it better we will “ attitude.

The way to get the CE rating system fixed is surely through insurance companies. Even if they make up their own A+ or whatever it is.

And where’s the 44 details‽

Say what you will, you cannot argue with Dick`s logic.
If only other, once great, builders hadn`t lost this ideal.
