K1 London Boat Show 1

This unique mini yacht has a lifting keel with bulb weighing 60kg yet its all-up weight is little more than a conventional single-handed dinghy. The hull is constructed using the latest light-weight construction techniques to minimise weight and the carbon spars are ultra light and responsive.

DSCF3788

The slender hull has little resistance when heeled so is quick and tacks through a low angle. The jib is set on a self-tacking jib pole and the cockpit is deep and comfortable when sitting on the deck edge.

The result is a boat that is an absolute joy to sail and guaranteed to provide effortless fast sailing and close tactical racing.
