Notes: Originally commissioned by a German builder for the European market. \nThough it received raves for it's sailing performance, it's popularity, from the beginning, was eclipsed by the FINN which had appeared earlier.\nThe photo here shows the prototype (sailed by the designer).\nThe sliding seat was done away with on the 'final' production version and a 2 pieced unstayed mast was used. (a la LASER).
