Sailor Resources
Here are the boats we sail and what we have learned about them so far on this awesome journey.
WASZP Foiler
The Waszp is an Australian, single-handed, hydrofoiling sailboat that was designed by Andrew McDougall as a one-design racer in 2016.
29er Skiff
The 29er was designed in 1998 by Australian skiff legend Julian Bethwaite and the class has now grown to over 3,000 active boats worldwide.
ILCA (LASER)
The Laser was first introduced to the public in 1971 at the New York Boat Show and as of today over 200,000 have been sold. This is the only boat on the list with true year round competition in Annapolis.
c420
The Club 420, or C420, is a derivative of the 420 and is not recognized by World Sailing or the International 420 Class Association. Designed by Vanguard boats in the 1970s, it has a heavier hull, reinforced for durability in institutional sailing, and a stiff, untapered mast.
