lighweight short skiffs, lots of wind, lots of waves, points system
based on airtime, technique, style and generaly not killing yourself...

Why not? it worked for powerboating with ZapCats. Who knows it could be the first TV-friendly sailing event. |

You knew this was coming..... The Cherubs have been doing that for ages!!!!! Even better now with bigger rigs
and twin wire.
Although we only recently presented a prize for the biggest wipe out! But seriously I can see it now... inverts, tail grabs, 180's, safety grabs, olie's... it's grinding the rail I'm not sure about. PS you can tell my boy's a freestyle skier, I haven't got a clue what he's on about half the time!!

As ive mentioned a few times on here: this winter im planning a new build project, currently either a new moth hull, a cherub, or another hush hush idea im playing with but hell, if anyone can sort me out some design data on something like this then I think it jumps to the top of the list based on 'wo00HH' factor alone.

i don't think that 8' is short enough. i think it has to be 6' so then
it's obviously not a normal boat, wouldn't want people getting the
wrong idea. It's blatently got to be incredibly hard to sail so that
the pioneers of the sport are visually much better than the rookies or
we may miss out on our 15 minutes of fame
