- Launch of the Psaros 33' high-performance one-design project
Intended for line honours regattas and easy day-sailing with reduced crew, this yacht is designed to recapture the sheer pleasure of sailing! Just the exhilaration of sailing fast, without the headache of complicated handicapping systems and the need to recruit a large crew!
The aim was to build a prototype this summer, but the response has been so positive that we are currently studying the feasability of building five units in a row in time for next season (2011).
You can download all feature details at the following links, but the highlights are:
> A design that is functional, efficient, economical and ultra-modern (no harking back to the past!).
> Focus on having fun on the water, by sailing fast in real time and forgetting the complications and frustrations of time-allowance rating rules.
> A box rule (Lem 33) has been created at the same time, which can also accommodate similar existing boats for a class ranking in conventional races such as Lake Geneva’s Bol d’Or.
>> Easy to sail either solo or with a small crew thanks to the extraordinary stability provided by the canting keel.
> Simple-to-use fittings, equipment and so on.
> Couldn’t be simpler to assemble, handle and transport – it is easily trailerable behind a car, plus fits in a 40’ container for shipping.
> Integrated inboard engine.
> The very simple accommodation of a day boat.
