He was my mentor. She had a taller rig than normal for going upwind.We could not get her to stand up so in one cowes week we chopped two foot off the mast to make her stand up.That done the trick. She was of kevlar construction. Great upwind and a pig downwind. The second yacht for Doug was Fantasy which I help to build but that is for another day. Good times ,thanks Doug.
