I can see it now:
"Seriously, what has the lab produced using the offcuts from the yacht sails?"
"C17H21NO4"
"Sweet let's have some before we write this copy "

The reality about this sail would be NP has introduced it as some kind of revitalization of their brand with a lot of hype kicking off the new decade. However, it's really just a make-over of the V8. They put a little lipstick on the pig and sent her back into the red-light window. They will try and sell it for an exorbitant price, then discount it if it isn't moving. You guys got hit with it first, for sure. I just bought a closeout '08 V-8 which was still pretty expensive. I have been using an '06 V8 and knew that the important development in their big sails was the ultracam which came in with the '08. The reviews I found here on Seabreeze www.seabreeze.com.au/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=59027&SearchTerms=NP,H2 raved about the rotation and other factors also found in the late model V-8's. All the other serious improvements that are featured in the H2, the Profile Relative Luff Sleeve Width and the 6 battens rather than 7 were put into the '08. From now on my windsurfing writing will be posted on Facebook under the name Robert Swift. Friends are welcome, Foes will be removed.
