Obviously you have no idea what you are talking about!
Very easy to talk about someone who cannot join the discussion ...

Just a litttle humor. Some would think Ben was a little pre-occupied with other things...

Taking 11 feet off a boat originally designed to be a 47 will certainly throw things out of whack...
I find this hard to believe a company of this nature would try to pull that off.
It has already been said the are building new molds for the 41. Hopefully they started with a fresh complete plug.
Good Luck! Looking forward to the finished product!

The way I read that is they are taking a 47 ft mold and blocking it in to reduce the size?

After viewing the site, I see a new plug in the making and looks to be about 41 feet. Providing they framed on 2 ft centers.
A fresh start...that's nice!
My question is, Will they be blocking the molds for the other sizes, or building 3 separate molds for the different lengths?
I read that there was a larger beam on the 47 hull.
3 inches added to each side. Usually the widest point on these boats would be around the dash area, which doesn't leave room for modifications.
So, will they be having 3 separate molds?

nuttin, I think we got a good responsible answer from Bob, that explains it all. He is doing what every creator does with his product. He nutures it through every step of the way.
