Did you get a chance to helm it?, if so how did it feel, I am told that with that rig set up you don't need rudders.

Is it a production boat or a home build?


I was on the helm half the time. (There's a tiller at either end.) It has a very balanced feel, however when you first sheet in after "shunting", she wants to round up pretty good (even when only sheeting the forward sail). Once she's moving, you can steer pretty easily with the sails.

The design is by Chesapeake Light Craft. There was one prototype built that had wing masts. The boat I was on was the second one built. It was ordered by a man in Chicago and built by Two Daughters Boatworks here in Vermont. Wood/epoxy construction, hollow wooden masts.
