What are the differences between the Competition and Expedition models?
The Competition and Expedition models are made from the same molds and use the same materials (foam core, carbon fiber cloth, and epoxy resin), the same laminate schedules, and the same construction method (hand lay up with vacuum bag curing). The Expedition model has additional storage hatches in the main hull; a roller furling/reefing mast step and associated blocks, cam cleats, and fairleads; and a hollow-roach sail with vertical battens suitable for roller furling. Most people who order the Expedition model also order the optional Raptor Sidecar™ accessory, which can be used to carry a passenger (person or pet), camping gear, or fishing gear.
