I've read at least one racing account that they are pretty fast. I've never seen one in person but they look to be very nicely crafted cold molded boats.
I remember seeing the Spirit yacht in the canals of Venice in the bond movie. Pretty unique styling take on the "Spirit of Tradition" style that is pushing it's way into some new boat design in this country. I wonder how they're received in the US?
