There are some really, really good reasons for the fixed sprit:
1- We can make it stiffer. That will be important for Code 0s and kites
in big breeze.
2- It helps the rating a ton.
3- Some of the early buyers have expressed interest in racing HPR. A
fixed sprit is a requirement of the HPR Rules.
4- At the speed this boat will go, keeping the bow seal watertight will
be pretty much impossible. That's ok I guess around the cans. You can
just bail between races. Offshore, not having a big hole in the front
is appealing to me.
The sprit will be easy to flip up at the dock, or remove for the road.
No need for a 40' slip.
