Hello everyone,As most of you know we are busy working away on the single handled sailing revolution and have some exclusive video for the forum memebers to check out before we go public with it. That being said it is a large file so beware if you are not on a high-speed connection. Here is the link - www.vaxxine.com/clsailboats/stealth/stealth_frostbite.wmv Let me know what you think, Cody

Wow...quite a boat!As far as the video/commercial... I'd show how easy it is to right after a capsize...or if it isn't easy I'd lose the capsize portion. About 10 seconds of the video.. from the 56 sec mark until approx 1:04 is a bit too jumpy. I'd edit that. The music is great at the beginning & maybe at end to fit the high energy/excitement concept, but I'd get a lot of 'voice over' going on in the middle body, listing specifications, technical whatever..or just plain sales pitch. Looks like a good compromise between a Cl 16 and a Hobie Cat style of boat.

Veeerrrry nice boat. A lot faster than when I saw it at the Toronto boat show...Heh hehA voiceover in the middle of the ad would be nice.....leave the dump in 'tho, nobody's perfect. Can you use the musical theme from Miami Vice instead? Congrats to all of the CL crew.

Wow! I would love to strap one of those rockets to my butt.It did take quite a while to download the video. I probably watched it a dozen times. The music was addictive; a voice-over would detract from that. Don is right: lose the capsize. It was not dramatic enough! And perhaps the clip of the assymetrical losing shape and the scene where the crew is hauling in the halyard or the retrieving line that had been trailing out the open transom should be edited. 2 thumbs up!

Too long to download the video again...but I can't remember if there's a scene where the boat catches up to and overtakes the cameraman's boat. That shot is very common but effective.

Cody, my iBook (Mac) couldn't download a .wmv stream. Do you have a more Mac-friendly version?------------------ Kevin Shortstay III, #901

Out of curiosity, what kind of degree do the designers of the dinghy have (what post-secondary studies have they done)?I was possibly considering a carreer in the area so I've been wondering... [This message has been edited by Canadian Sailor (edited November 20, 2005).]
