hi roopeshkrishna .
hahaha  I thought some one may like it ........
they sail very well too ........ a bit like the 'footies'   a proper sailing class but only 12 ins long ........ideal for those 'easy build' boats I posted earlier in the list.

see on you tube.......

Hi Don,
I guess making an outrigger with bottles would also make a brilliant light boat. also it would make it very light and minimal drag.

Just a photo....some food for thought.

himate.
you do a catamaran...
2 bottles 3 ins apart and then enough weight in each bottle to stop it tipping with the wind.
and then just a small keel instead of 'the big one with a weight on'.
