   I am interested in communicating with someone who either has
   experience in building boats with carbon fibre glass or kevlar, 
   or owns a boat built of same and can argue  the
   relative virtues of either. I know of the price-related factors
   involved but my engineering info is zilch and would like further
   knowlege of things like 
                       -life-cycle durability  
                       -documented materials-failure on real boats
		       -any current research on related topics
			
			THANKS!
