This is quite possibly the most effort that has ever gone into testing a new playboat design." OH PLEASE! That's is a really stupid statement to make. I don't recall ever designing a boat that had LESS testing than this. Just quickly, lets see... Squashtail had 16 prototypes and 2 years of development on 4 continents. Glide had 13 prototypes over 3 years on 6 continents.... I'm not disputing that the Project is an awesome design - it is - but it is very very far from being "the most effort that has ever gone into testing a new playboat design". Maybe the most effort for Wave Sport (since EJ does one proto only). The problem with comments like that is it leaves the reader asking "What else are you wrong about in your review? Is the boat really as good as you make it out, or is the entire review erroneous"? Corran ;-) “A total of five prototypes were tested to totally perfect the hull and deck shape.
