It is the same one we spoke about HERE.
I suppose that means the ownder of Destination Fox Harb'r wanted a "go-boat" as well as his "blow-boat"... or perhaps the Alloy is for sale?
As far as I know it's been for sale for a few years already. I've heard all sorts of figures mentioned, between 20m Euros up to 35m Euros.
Money can't buy everything. ;) At least those names are the minority. Mind you, the delinquent side of me can appreciate the fun of flying...
If I was a betting man I'd say Dubai will get an Act, no doubt about that. I think the "homebase" of the Cup will stay in Valencia though....
Like you said Hawk, any and all national preferences aside, Alinghi successfully defending the Cup is by far the best thing that could have...

Yep, that's one beautiful yacht Lars. :) Personally, I like the two ends of the spectrum.... I'm a little less enthusiastic about what's found in...
Basically, yeah! Even more overhang on the bow and stern would be great too, like the J-Class "Ranger" for example: [img]
Still doesn't mean it's pretty. ;)
Given that there's a Canadian on Alinghi, and not on ETNZ... you're cheering for the wrong team.:p
Oh, I have no doubt she'll cut through the water beautifully... however, given the "retro" theme of the project, putting a modern styled racing...
