Jeff,

I am going out on a limb here. Jason Ker is the designer. He has a number of designs currently sailing in Europe.

The hull is biaxial, s-glass and e-glass using epoxy resins and oven cured. No exotic stuff. Rig is swept back with no overlapping jibs. Designed for asymmetic as well as symmetric spinnakers.

I am unsure how far to go with this at present. I am the owners liason and boat captain. I do have particulars regarding the 42, which is an unbuilt design. Jason Ker can be easily accessed by using a search engine. This boat closely resembles Flying Glove.

Ultimately, I think it would be cool if we were able to get interested parties from Sailnet involved, then put the whole process on the net. Maybe buy the gear as a consortium online, etc.

I have tried to e-mail you directly and think I might be hitting your firewall. Can you provide a way to contact you by phone?
