Re: Strange one from ebay?
it's a marmite boat. Her indoors had one and loved it but she wasn't learning anything in it so I forced her to sell it. It went within the club and the new lady owner loves it too. Unfortunately that one died but the scouts were donated an almost new one they didn't want, so I passed it on to her. Come to the Nationals and have a go!
edit to say she wasn't learning because although it's a blast off wind it can't go upwind at all.

What stops it going upwind? A minisail with an old sail and thin boom has similar problems, but bung a decent sail and stiff boom on, and whilst they don't set the world on fire, they will at least get there.

very short dagger board, wide flat hull, over long boom so overlong leech and weird sail shape. I think the main culprit is the dagger board.
