Here is an interesting yacht to have a look at..........
http://www.sailkart.nl/
interesting to watch in some of the videos. seems to have a mountain of ground clearance and flex at the back. one video i found had blokarts , xsails, windkarts luducs and some homemades in a fisly regatta and a standing start
Good find Brian.
It seems to confirm that the future of land sailing is heading more and more towards the portable "Mini Yacht" incorporating the latest materials technology.
As there are so many mini yachts emerging incorporating different approaches to the same broad concept, it bodes well for the rope loop class rule.
Interesting video The basic geometry looks standard to me except for the pilot position which is high and forward This makes the boom high too
I wonder if the track is wider to compensate
Also the taller/larger person would put centre of gravity further back and head higher up changing balance quite sinificantly I would think. The advertised tyres look interesting.
