Questions & Answers
Hi what year did it go to Noumea? resmassive (142 • 6:38 am, Mon, 6 AprHi. Around 2013. Cheers, Mark. msjd (371 • Monday, 6 April 2026Can she sail to windward without a motor helping her point? muffit2 (442 • 2:34 pm, Mon, 6 AprHi. She will need a few more tacks than a deep keeled yacht, but she can sail to windward without motor assistance. Her sail is cambered between each batten to generate power. Also, her chine helps with grip.
