I think they should name it 'The Stingray'

(I know another brand already uses that name, but this actually looks like one)

Good to see someone thinking outside of the box for a change

Keen to see some pictures of it in action.

And now we can start the debate - 14' vs 14'2"

that is so radical that someone will form the sup rules committee and outlaw it.

i think this 'blackbird' is designed to be legal at the moment. i remember reading a post on standamarans (which i now can't find) that said that whatever legal body was governing the sport would allow any depth concave bottom as long as it was part of the moulded shape.

so the ron house shown below with seperate hulls joined by tubes is out as would be trimaraman outriggers. but the SIC one piece cat is OK. and the new corebans can have their long deep bottom concave
