    The people who manufacture luxury yachts from carbon fibre have a lot to learn from cyclists who are worried about 'water ingress'. ;)
  • osmosis in fibreglass yachts can be quite a problem. I'm not yet aware of any problems with carbon fibre yachts in that respect

    Tell that to the Vendee teams - notably the PRB boat which folded in half AFTER 200kg of reinforcing carbon was added
