Le Bb is dead right Yellow Cedar and carbon go very well together , I have tested them and many other composites to destruction for some local designers years ago , and every one of us walked away amazed at how it stood up compared with very exotic laminates and foam cores

A successful event according to the competitors with a range of conditions , the Milford club relied on volunteers and loaned RIBs but pulled it off, interestingly Yachting NZ all of 200M away had a bunch of new chase /coach boats sitting idle at their base , and not offered to help out , but that is what we have come to expect from them -after all not an Olympic class only a world champs !

And as I drove past the other day -Okahu Hardstand still largely empty, no one maintaining boats or learning how to and they have legislated good copper antifoul out -except for on ships of course!! Goodness I am getting old and cynical
