Fabulous! It simply "flies" along …….one thing that seriously lets it down though… it appears to be French … and I hate the French… not as much as I hate the Yanks, obviously ….. but still.

Yes, the French connection is a bit of a disaster. But they are nuts about their multihulls.

It would appear that your comment is a result of ignorance and a lack of breeding. I suggest that you differentiate between Americans and the American government. There are a lot of Americans that are very unhappy with their government, just like you.
