  • could be done but would need to be done correctly

    ie pop off the bow decks

    add extra glass for a structural bow spreader bar, top section of a carbon windsurfer mast?, and tramp mounts

    while decks were off check stringer bonding and maybe make and add a glass\foam10mm?\glass bulkhead about a meter fwd of the beam

  • Yes it could be done, however you won't put anyone out there. The 5.2 does not tolerate weight very well. I think we have been down this road 2 summers ago.

  • Front tramp on a 5.2 is a bad idea, not enough floatation in the front to handle it.

  • Thanks our point exactly. The 5.2 does not tolerate weight very well. If you think it does then we have to agree to disagree.
