Thanks

The design is my own, the 4th design to hit the water and gething quicker every time.

Weight 4051g. The outher layer of mahogany is only 0,3-0,4 mm thick, so it do not weight that mush. I am at moment use AA batt. but could save some weight changing them to AAA batt. I just do not think that 50g overweight is that mush, at least it does not seem to have an inpakt on preformens. I won the the national championship in it first event, with a lead of 48 points to #2.
