Seroiusly mate - THINK AGAIN.....
There used to be loads at my club - but not any more. Because they're crap! You need loads of wind to get them going at all and even then they seem sluggish and roll uncontrollably downwind - an allround pig to sail! If i were you i'd go for a vareo/blaze or even an RS300. |

well the vareo would best cos it has the kite and it has space for a very small crew ie. small kid just like the topaz the only thing is that the vareo is more expensive but they do hold there value very well

I'd have thought that the Vareo etc mentioned are rather bigger and faster. The boats to look at before buying would be the Streaker, Lightning 368, British Moth (if inland), Byte, Europe and possibly Solo, though the weight needed is a little greater. And the Feva, of course, if looking at plastic only. But, as I've not sailed the Topaz in that particular form (I wasn't impressed with the Tres version) I can't say it isn't better for you than those others.

For heavens sake Rupert, stop this reasonable attitude and your
considered replies. Your making an exhibition of yourself man !!!
Wickedbobkiller chappy, should one of those boats come to my notice, you'll be the first person I'll call. Edited by Pierre |
