Sagitta Boat Test in Yachting Monthly magazine
As many of you know, I spent much of the year working on and then - fortunately - sailing my 32 year old 30ft Sagitta catamaran.
We had originally built Sagitta in our garden and launched it in 1991 (luckily we lived by the water!) We sold it in 1995 and it went to the Mediterranean for a few years. I bought in back in September 2022.
Almost exactly a year later David Harding came down to sail and test out the boat. Although he hadn't sailed Sagitta before, he did sail its bigger sister, the 32ft Eclipse, a couple of times, most notably when we won the Multihull division of the 2003 Round the Island race. And of course he took the now infamous photo of Sagitta rounding the Needles in the same race this year.
His eight page report is in the January 2024 issue of Yachting Monthly. If you cannot find a paper copy you can download a digital version here (and elsewhere)
