KARO

Karo, my second own design footy survived it's first season.
It posted a good result(7th) at the goldcup, and was the basis for classic rigg development.
It is also my first panel build boat ever, and my first boat intended for easy building(karo is winner of the richardson trophy, an award for simplicity and promotion of fun).
now the black boat was refurbished into it's original/optimised form:
the new 285g bulb seems to work best with the 1500sqcm a rigg

the paint is tired, the hooks for a classic rigg remain on the boat also a new balsa bumper is in place
all up
This is KARO's final shape, it will remain like this.
It's a competitive boat, that is oriented for windy days. I am looking forward to sail her at some future footy regatas.


a complete set of pdf plans will be free to download soon.
