Skerry Sloop

Posted by CLC on Aug 14, 2006

Two builders are working on Skerries for which they ordered the Passagemaker's rig. I made up some drawings and we shipped the relevant pieces to make it work right. I've not heard a performance report; either they're busy sailing or they're busy sanding.

No reason why it wouldn't work; the centers-of-effort and what-have-you line up. The boat will be fast but not as stable (28% more sail area), and will take longer to set up.
