Got fuselage fixed and attached to the mast. It's better than new now.

Yeah I think that's the best idea for carbon eh.

How is the Lift? We've got one in the club house but I'm scared to try it...

Very smooth. Also you start foiling at lower speed due to low AR and high area.

while I had fuselage getting fixed I rode Slingshot Hoverglide on 30" mast and it certainly needed more speed to get on the foil. At lower speeds in lightwind conditions I was doing that "Harrier vertical take-off move" going above water slow at some crazy angle of attack and smoothly transitioning into "flying".
I'm keeping an eye on the Slingshot Ghost Whisper - with its 42" mast it's going to be sweet experience. Or new MHL - I'll see later. But I certainly want a taller mast and wing with ability to go higher speed.
