G: Would buy one off the shelf ... if it had a kite, was made of foam/epoxy, had a ready supplier of sails and was a bit quicker up wind.

If you read the issue of Y&Y magazine which hit the shelves today, you hopefully enjoyed the Farr 3.7 test.
Just in case Tom Gruitt is too modest to post his own video, I'll do it for him! http://vimeo.com/30130411 I like it.....a lot. |

Why the Belgian sail? Looks good by the way, as does the new look mag (and boat review format).

I bought the boat off a Belgium national who owned it in NZ whilst working for North Sails.

That does bring back happy memories of blasting upwind in my Farr Cherub: she still managed a "first to the windward mark" at a UK Championships when 17 years old...
