29er

The 29er is high performance skiff, sailed by a team of two, with the crew on a trapeze. Designed by Australian Julian Bethwaite (designer of the Olympic class 49er). A boat built for the Gorge, San Francisco Bay, or anywhere it's breeze on!


A surprisingly durable and very fast skiff for youth sailors and adult combination alike. One design racing the world over and recreational sailors enjoy the boats speed and responsiveness. Skiff sailing at an entry level price with outstanding performance!

Hull
  • Constructed from hi-tech composite (polyester and fiberglass) foam sandwich creating an ultra-lightweight hull, that is more durable and easier to maintain and repair
  • Self-draining cockpit with rear dam is carefully designed to hold water after a capsize to stabilize the very light hull before it drains out
  • Non-skid on the wings for grip while trapezing
  • Sand blasted deck for greater grip while tacking
  • Aluminum safety grab (and foot) rails for skipper

Control Lines
  • Gnav system to open up cockpit and better control leech tension
  • A single line hoists the spinnaker and sets the pole and retrieves both
