Hi Jozef,

: I've asked Tom Yost what the max. displacement for his sea tour 13
: is and got answered 275 pounds at 4 3/4 inch.

You asked me in one of your several emails for displacement... not max. displacement.
Max. displacement as I use it relates to the top of the gunwales at their low point ( center of hull / beginning of deck)....515lbs.

The Displacement figure I provided you via email was based on approx 3" of freeboard ( gunwale to waterline at hull low point)
That number as I stated was "around" 275 lbs. Had I realized that it would cause you such stress, I would have
been more exacting... 272 lbs. I state only 250lbs for this boat on my website, as I normally provide conservative figures.

You can't compare my boat's displacement to someone else's design unless you know what you are comparing....

: No call me ingratefull, sceptical or even plain rude.....

What then should I call you ?

Regards, Tom
