I suggest checking the dates of the posts. This thread was effectively dead before someone came along and revived it.

I was pointing out that the mud slinging had stopped months ago and that there was no need to request that it stop because it already had.

Jeez---Rumrunner isn't even a multihull, let known a Sea Cart 26.
And your blog entries about home electricity usage--although interesting--are material for a different thread, if not forum.

OK - I don't seem to be able to make an acceptable move in this thread and you seem determined to be disgruntled and offended so I'll just let it be.

FWIW I was trying to move the discussion forward by flagging the age of the previous posts but all it has done is raised more ire.

I think everyone is in agreement - let's not go any further with the bickering from last year.

Welcome to the forum. Thank you very much for posting your video and hopefully getting things off in a more interesting direction.

Thats a great vid and the swept back stems look cool.
But what is the purpose of them. Wave piercing???
They certainly throw a lot of spray.

..well, maybe it is meant for the Stockholm archipelago? The waves seldom go bigger than this here. I don't know, but it sure looked cool.

I believe the intent in larger boats is to minimise pitching by wave piercing but has now moved on to simply being fashionable.
