A Little Light Patent Reading.....

[pacman809]

Thought I'd do a quick search on the patent number on my XTB hull. I downloaded about a 10 pager & drawings of the original '86 patent grant to Darris Allison. Pretty interesting but heavy on the legal-ese.
There are about 7 other patents for Darris also. If you're interested, go to http://patft.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-bool.html and type in Darris(search field-1- inventors name) and Allison(search field -2, inventors name).

One more thing.......once you are looking at the patent text..slide all the way to the bottom of the page and click on Images to see the accompanying drawings.
