Zzap skiff?Any idea what happened to it?

Originally posted by Chris 249 I still wonder whether it's good for the sport to hold kids in Optis until they are big enough and good enough to go straight into a 29er or 420...Then again, if that's the way it's done in Britian it seems to work, you're undeniably the top dinghy country.

Nothing universal about that Chris, depends on the clubs etc I think. But then we don't have Oppies at all (thank goodness -no oppie parents, ours start with Toppers a few years older. But they seem quite happy to take on 29ers straight from that at around 16 - in fact one of our U14s took my IC out last week (albeit in no wind)

it looks like a 200 with a trapeze
