That does look like Rudolph's rude bits...very cool.  However in the top picture it does look spookily like a 97 rules Cherub with no jib.  What did she go like then?

Move over MPS...

Iain, the boat has hit  the water for 3 test days @ present, overall we are very pleased with the performance. Further in house testing to go, then we will bring her along side a few proven boats. So far the ride is great, hull trims well to weight, powers up quickly.Rob@ Voodoo

Doug, the shot you see has the mainsheet hung form the boom, we are trying the sheet with the block/ cleat comb at present. Our first days of sailing saw us using only a ratchet block, this was awfull. It did allow us to test sail the hull, and prove sailing, check the main. All I can say is the boat moves well, keep an eye on us I would love to come to Europe soon. Rob @ Voodoo

Whale watching via Google Earth?

(Thanks to James C-W for sending this to me a few weeks ago.  Thought it was a spoof until I checked Google Earth myself!)

Is that yours?  Is it fast?  I reckon it needs a massive spinnaker on the front.  And does that dodgy four hull thing actually work?
