Stand C34 will be showing a Blaze with the class association plus a brand new 2-person, 2-sail Icon.

Recent developments include a partnership deal with European builder Devoti that means Icon will be exclusively produced for European wide distribution in the Polish Devoti factory alongside Finns, Melges and the D1.

Icon sets out to establish a new standard for production 2-sail hikers – one that is truly sophisticated and light yet relatively simple and cost-effective. The boat has now entered production and can truly challenge many 3-sail alternatives making it highly suitable for many locations, both open and restricted, and crew mixes.
