This is a fascinating alternative to Islands. A winner of the Alaska y2k endurance event

What a great concept Tony! 8)
Hadn’t seen that before. It ticks all my boxes for a TI upgrade, though I’d like to see roller furling.
I loved the auto tiller video clip.

Yup, lack of reefing ability is a clear disadvantage (but I reckon fairly easily overcome), but the concept is exciting. Pricing does not appear outrageous compared to Islands and I am sure some home-builders would see it as an attractive proposition.
