    Nigel Irens lives in Totnes, Devon, England. Why not ask him direct--he's a pretty nice fellow.

    Got some answers on the hiswa paper.

    Ilan voyager weight is 5500 kg = 12000 lbs
    D/L ration = 17 (super ultralight...)
    L/B = 20. rather narrow.

    So the key to power efficiency seems to be ultraligth.
