1 / 1Páginas

The SKUD 18 is a high performance lead-assisted skiff with a tube-launched asymmetric gennaker and a modern composite rig. All the excitement of a skiff with the stability of a keelboat for two and three person crews Selected as the two-person equipment for Paralympic Sailing Competition, the SKUD18 can be sailed by two and three-person crews of all abilities. In its open configuration the crew are seated on the gunwale, but if one crew uses a centreline seat another can use trapeze. A wide range of equipment can also be added after control points to enable the crew to maximize their collective potential.
