It has changed over the years.

Later stages of the addiction may also involve taking an angle grinder to parts of your beloved cherub followed by plenty of carbon in an never ending quest to get little bit more from the boat. text/html 2010-02-25T02:18:37-07:00 http://www.sailingsource.com/cherub/test/doku.php/event_previousyears Events in 2009 We suffered a Wiki meltdown in June.

Iain Murray, Amanda Wilmot, Rob Brown, Simon Daubney and numerous other top Antipodean sailors spent their teens sailing Cherubs. Why is it countries as small as Australia and New Zealand produce such a large proportion of the world's best Sailors?

Video footage has shown boats hitting 25 knots, which is pretty fair! Even more important than the raw speed is the handling. Ultra light, ultra responsive, ultra quick.
