What a tribulation.

Sorry for such a bad end to your trip. Thanks again for sharing your trip with us.

The front windows are 12mm perspex specifically designed to conform to ISO 12216 and there is not one report of a failure of the front window from wave impact in the thousands of catamarans Leopard has built with this feature.

The front cockpit is designed to drain in 45 seconds, exceeding ISO 12216 and ABYC standards.

I wouldn't call these the ultimate blue water boats, but they are probably more capable than the putz at the helm about 99% of the time.

Considering that the right engine drug on the runway for a considerable distance, it's amazing that the right wing didn't rip off. It speaks to the strength of that connection.

look at this video on youtube, around 2:58 shows the move back off the runway.

I was only half kidding when I said I said they'd put the engine on roller-skates. Instead they propped the wing on a flatbed truck with black tires on it to support the wing. Love seeing the process.

Saw the Topper owner last season and he didnt look as spite as he used to. Don't know the history, but what's the issue with him, Beacon Hill condos and his restaurant?
