Why move to the L4 so soon? What did they find out with the L3?

Here's another development of a New Zealand skiff....

Woowho, the mast is up.

I guess ... 12ft skiff or Cherub of some sort? Maybe an R Class?

The triangle on the boom is for the kicker .. think it attaches on the end of that and pulls forward. More room for crews etc.

Thats a rather large mast though ....

It's an 18 footer.

As you will have seen in the New Dinghies section of the magazine, it's a Bashee!

The wooden painted one is an 18. Nice Aus sense of humour!

The white triangular thing hanging off the boom is indeed the kicker. It pulls forward horizontally.

The mast scares the crap out of me also, but it is only  6.90m.
