Aussie 14's. Great boats!

They were about 60Kg if I remember rightly and were very sorted and very quick (mast about 6ft back, jib off a snout, etc.).

A lot like a scaled-up Cherub/12. If you've ever seen Flat Stanley, you'll agree that that the boat in the vid called Eureka looks a lot like FS.

Here's one for all you foiler guru's.

Video filmed at Belmont, Lake Macquarie NSW, in a freshening NE sea breeze. Best sailing waterway in the world.

Features a couple of pretty handy sailors. Ex 49er world champ, current Volvo sailor Chris Nicholson and current 49er world champ, Nathan Outteridge.

Now I'm not a cat lover but this does show just how effortlessly fast cats can be. A couple of guys out for a jolly screaming along!
