All the guys at the front have the final product, yes Hyde mains and kites    We went through 4 sailmakers before settling for them but also buckets of test sails before the final shapes were established.  You will be pleased to know that included taking 4" off the leach - more headroom.  It's just amazing how much faster the production sail is than the development ones.

We have put a new blog style page on the D-One UK site.  To start the page we have Adrian's input about taking the Demo boat out into Hayling Bay last weekend to see, for himself, how it performed on the sea.  Go to  http://devoti-one.co.uk/devoti-one_suntouched3_009.htm see how he got on.

Call those cups?


You need to see the size of the ones planned for the UK series next year



If size (and antiquity and provenance) of trophies are your thing then the fleet to be in in the UK is the International Canoe Class.
