Hell yeah go bladerider!!!
The hydrofoil moth ( modern era) came out of perth.
Until i did my knee i was making booms and fitting out masts for bladerider.
i nearly got to sail on one when i was in melbourne over christmas but the outrigger blew during a gybe.
on the same day in 4-5 knots of wind one of the boys logged a 17.4knots!
if you want a bladerider you can call brett at windrush on 93141317, he is the WA agent. i'm not sure if brett have been given his boat yet, but it should happen soon hopefully. however john Illet also makes his prowler hydrofoil moths in perth.

i believe the guys sail out of mounts bay but i dont think they sail with the regularity they did before the worlds in melbourne in 2004. It would appear most of the mothies are too busy making families than sailing these days.
