100' Supermaxi

if we do that its morelikley that a mere mortal will be able to afford it....
To be honest im not really interested in super maxis, even maxis have been getting bigger to, remember when a 70ér was a maxi? Maxis are not about performance, they only exist so that millionaires can pose around in yacht clubs comparing their wallets and yachts as extensions of their manhood.

The maxi monohull is redundant in a performance sense. All of us here know that a cat is faster, and you can make a smaller cheaper cat for the same purpose.

basically this like all other collaborative design threads on this forum has decended into an arguement about principles rather than actually designing anyhting at all. Cant say im suprised really.

Exactly, we all are reasonable people, me excepted, and even I realize that a 100' boat is not a practical boat. But a 32-footer is a different story entirely, yes, it may be expensive, but not RIDICULOUSLY so, maybe $80-120k but not $500,000. And even $80k is really pushing the limit of the wallet of many of us. So a $50-90k price range, approxamately?
