    It can be done! State of the art construction techniques equate to a lightweight hull, a modern rig makes for a boat that is sailable across the wind range and good design does the rest!

    Easy recovery has to be high on the list of priorities for the single handed Silver Sailor - not having to climb Everest just to get onto the plate is a big plus factor
