Finally had a chance to throw together some cell phone camera clips of the Rossiter-built Critchfield.

We were able to get a few quick runs in right before draining the water out of the cottage and calling it a year. Being extremely light, the boat seemed to handle very well and accelerate very quickly. I'd actually consider adding weight though as crosswinds pushed the bow around a lot at speed, which nearly made me crap myself. http://hpbc.ca/images/smilies/icon_rolleyes.gif
Can't wait to get it back out in the spring and do some real testing!
