Julian's definition of a "skiff" would exclude many of the traditional working boats in Aus that actually originated the term. There really doesn't seem to be a satisfactory definition of "skiff", although in general we could mostly agree whether a boat is or is not a skiff. It has become a marketing term. |

Yeah the original def of skiff was just an open boat, one with no decks and or tanks i think. there was something on the 49er thread about that but i thought this was the most relivent post. No one actualy knows the real definition of skiff I asked on the Musto Skiff stand at show and only one out of three had anyidea and he directed me to 49er forum this is from knightmare!!! |

Just imagine a second what it would be like if there wasn't the Anti-spamming thingy! KnightMare wouldn't even eat all day! Just kidding, Pippa, hope you're better - take care |
