Limit of positive stability! - 12/30/12 04:28 PM
Ok looks like PIYA is getting race clubs to enforce the limit of positive stability here in the North West. We had a sport boat go down a couple of years ago in a long distance race and now every one is scrambling to cover there ass.
Can we post the actual LOPS on the specs page so race organizers stop hounding me. I did my calculation measuring the boat and find Vampire within spec for serious of shore racing. But it's very close to the 110 cut off.
I know the Chicago Mac guys worked on this the same time we had our accident. I was just wishing it would go away.
I feel very confident in the boat and love the way it handles in big winds. Any one who has not surfed the boat in 40+ Knt winds should try it. It's a blast.
