OK, finally got some racing pics of the 14 Maxi in action. This was a distance race of about 22 miles. I beat all the 16s to the first mark, about 7 miles out. Then, as I always do, I did something stupid and fell back. I ended up finishing 30-60 seconds behind the leading 16 for a grand 4th place finish. I had no chance against the tigers, H20 and F18HT.

Wow, Dan- that looks just great! Great to hear you finished ahead of most the '16s. That should annoy them to no end.

I don't have any extra jibs right now, but I may put together another order for some new ones. I got them last year for $225 each in a bulk order. If you are interested, let me know and I'll drum up a few other people to place an order.
