very tasty photo, cheers rick whip many boats on the fetch as they plane so easily. Mylars should save the class. I had one and may buy one again as the mylars are cheap and last longer tthan dacron. Need tight leeeches- as with any boat though Megabyte laser EPS - too many build issues RS200- many say it is nicer than the 400- used to eat them in the tasar though did I forget to say 59er.... |

the hurricane 5.9 is in my opinion a under rated boat in todays market, it has so much going for it, cheap 2nd hand prices, great build quality, large nationals (50), great fleet, option to go 3 sail and stay same handicap + many many more!! |

Maybe that's just their strategy... if it stops selling stick an assy on it and see if anyone buys one?

yer maybe. it does look fun but if u want a singlehanded trapeze boat with an assy there is the 700.mps and they look so much better than the minging vortex.

That seems to be Topper's strategy too. Bring out a singlehander, add a jib, then a kite, then a trapeze, then a bigger main. What next? I think the Vortex offers something different to the MPS/700, but how anyone can claim it's not a cat is beyond me (although cat sailors may not want to be associated with it!). Not so much under rated as unknown (in the UK), the NS14. The Tasar is essentially a (slightly stretched) one-design 30 year old NS14. I haven't sailed one, but I reckon if the Tasar is good, the NS must be better. |
