Wonderful little boats. I’m a Flying Dutchman sailor and used to high speeds but this looks like such great fun. If the class would’ve been active in the Netherlands, I’d get one myself.

I once saw a boat like these a long time ago while in Grand Haven, MI., and I was very much
impressed!.. To have a boat hull like a J-Class(?), but to be able to slide oneself in, like a" hand
in a glove" feeling, and sail 'er like a full sized yacht; Well, I liked it! What a great boat to sail!!

My dad just got one of these cool little boats, and is trying to figure out how to install a hook in the boat so it can be lifted with a crane. I noticed a boat being lifted this way in the video. Do you know how the hook was installed?

To be fair so is the 12m class it’s based on.
