Photos by Oliver Laing, 5 August 2001
"We all hit the water with only Bretts boat
and a camera/rescue boat. I remained dry while Oliver and Brett
sailed around. It was only about 8 knots of breeze on this day and
it was up and going really well on the reaches. Brett sailed convincingly
past an A class cat on reach doing close to 20 knots. Back on the
beach the A class sailor did not seem very happy about it!"

This clearly shows the two wings on the
centreboard and the one on the rudder that caused all that
lift in the photo up top. A change over to the hydrofoils
can be easily be completed on the water, with the assistance
of a rubber duck.
