Ok. that looks more like a modern take on the "wedge". Which is similar to the bloodaxe.. I wonder if Mathews is the designer?

The new kiwi hull is even more vertical and doesn't have the wings but has racks. http://www.sail-world.com/cruising/index...=&nid=38128

This kiwi development I guess means the hulls are no longer "R" class compliant. Not an issue in Au but is in kiwiland. Again unless the "R" class has changed rules. Also great to see that the "R" & 12 classes in NZ have a requirement for 2nd hand boats!! Fantastic news for sailing!!
As they say.. start sailing get old enough and good enough and get onto a 12 then get too old and retire to 18s and finally when very old retire to cats!!
