Morelli and Melvin design, delightfully overpowered, no glass work, one string and (drumroll) cup holders. Seriously, I find the boat is a very nice ride and tacks just fine. The sheer number of boats on the line in the early nationals (60+?) was a riot. And it was different - you have to sail it really deep off the wind like a dinghy, and as a uni, it sails surprisingly high even without boards. I think it is a good boat and never would have sold mine if we hadn't moved to Cali where space is a very expensive concern (at least in LA county it is). Two cats and the associated storage fees just wouldn't pass muster with the wife.

To be fair, I also really enjoyed the Nacra 4.5 and the 5.0, and I owned a Mystere 4.3 - all skeg boats.
