I do work mostly on the Hercules and Hydra systems. You can buy a boat for what some of these full systems cost.
Got a tabletpc with Deckman sitting on my desk here right now running as a slave to my laptop running Deckman as the master via bluetooth doing some testing.
Observation of the day: don't load a polar file for wind trends as the polar file for the boat. It makes deckman crash and you have to reinstall it. Ball Peen hammer next to all nav stations as far as im concerned. (not to smash the computer, but to smash the fingers of the idiot who screws it up in the middle of a race)
Gougeon Brothers used to build boats and windmill blades with laminated wood and their "secret sauce" epoxy in the 80's
