New Zealand R Class - Another Kiwi development class, the R is 3.9m (12'9") with two trapezes and around the same sort of sail area as a UK rules Cherub. The "beginners guide" to R class sailing is strongly recommended as being highly applicable to Cherubs.- International 14 - Two trapeze development class, sailed mainly in UK, US, NZ and Australia.
- International Canoe - Slender hull, sliding sea, and often nowadays a soddin' great asymmetric spinnaker. And a long and illustrious development history.
