Reception
The boat was selected amongst the Best Boats of 2013 by Sail Magazine and praised for its speed, comfort, construction quality and ergonomics, but criticized for its learning curve and a need for power winches.[5] It was also praised by Cruising World, being awarded 'Most Innovative' for 2013 and garnering compliments for its interior design, performance and detailing.[6]
gollark: I think the code is private. Ask <@!311619295010357248>.
gollark: For Markdown, don't you need to avoid matching things inside monospace/code blocks?
gollark: And they have some thing where the service's backend servers can also verify that the device is locked down and not user-controllable through some cryptographic thing, where SafetyNet throws data at Google's services and they say if the device is acceptable or not.
gollark: Meanwhile on Android Google has some awful SafetyNet thing which means apps can refuse to run if you have the bootloader unlocked, yes.
gollark: You can turn that off, and there's no feature where, say, a website can refuse to serve content to you if you do.
