Well i think the fact that the person who STARTED this thread made a direct cherub related question... "Does the fully foiling Cherub have dynamic foil pitch control like a moth ? any video of that yet ?" means that it was likely to go that way from the out set!

Absolutely not, an 18ft skiff - foiling or not could never be called boring, just a bit bored of yet another thread ending up being a discussion about cherubs....

There must be some merit in starting a cherub thread...........

It's fully foiling, got rudder and daggerboard...........

Question is will it fly on the T-foils? Hope it does.....

Aquas foils are, as i understand it, virtually ready to go and fitted but I dont think the control system has been fitted yet and they definantly have not hit the water

She is on the market at the moment as andy and tom are a little more big boned than your average cheruber and are looking for a 12.

The foils are available to be sold with the boat... who fancies a challenge?

Well aqua (despite having foils made) is on the market so I'm guessing no.
