Now I might just possibly have seen it all. Good lord.
The name is funnily appropriate. Flagrante Delicto. Is it scary that this is #2 of this namesake?
Can you imagine how that boat would pitch in a seaway with that ridiculous thing up forward? I wonder how that thing is secured to the boat. MacGregors aren't exactly strong, so what's keeping the whole boat from just collapsing beginning with the stem?
These photos deserve to be posted here for posterity. I saved them to disc.

I hadn't noticed the "2" designation - could that mean that this boat is perhaps an improved version of the first? God forbid!Tim wrote:Now I might just possibly have seen it all. Good lord.

Oh no no, not at all. I'm sure it handles like a dream. ;0)Tim wrote: Can you imagine how that boat would pitch in a seaway with that ridiculous thing up forward?
I mean, what but the most advanced scientific modeling could have produced something like that?
