    What a cool boat. The ability to short-hand/ single-hand makes it very desirable.

    Undoing bolts to remove that bowsprit sounds like a tedious job. A hinge system would work better wit a pin holding it down. I do like this racer and your review of it.

    @@PlanetSailOnline Thank you for sharing! i was also looking part 1 of this video.. You seem to have a lot of information on this incident. From the photos i have seen of Nexba, it looks the hull/keel attachment point (the Mortise) was intact inside and out of hull. It must have been the foil sheered at the end of the tenon joint. I feel bad for BP as he is so thrilled about this boat.

    Yesterday there were a ton of comments regarding the keel issue. Today almost none. Looks like somebody is editing the comments to turn the unresolved keel issue down to keep channel sponsors happy. This leaves a very bad taste.

    The accusation that PlanetSail is editing comments is not only utterly false but is an allegation that we take very seriously. You offer no evidence for this which is understandable, because the fact is that as always we haven't changed, edited or deleted comments. You are also factually incorrect in your declaration that the builders have 'added two extra bolts in the hope that this fixes the issue' - completely false. May we suggest you take a look at the explanation that we ran in the full test review which sets out the modifications that have taken place - By the sounds of it you haven't seen this part of the test - kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqOKzLdwc9vJeM4.html

    They certainly deleted my first comment. Given that there are still almost zero comments about the unresolved failure issue, I suspect they are systematically removing any unfavourable comments. Class acts!
