Hate to say it but not really lovin it style wise. I'm sure performance quality and rigging will be second to none but it looks like a fifties Oldsmobile. Its pretty visually distracting. Sorry just not for me I guess.

I don't think you ever have to apologize when it comes to matters of taste and preference, and I know Gary Stray would agree with me on that. It's definitely different. To each his own, right?

Looking forward to getting the full article on what's happening with the Miss GEICO team, including Stray's plans for his creation, finished and in the next issue of the magazine.

Work, work, work. (Yeah right.) Someone has to do it.

Seems like a very innovative design concept. The proof will be in the pudding as to how well it runs.it seems like it will be very efficient hull.
