Conceived in 2010 by Andrew McDougall, the designer of the Mach 2 Moth, the WASP has been a several year project aimed at making foiling sailboats more accessible to the sailing community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

An affordable, modern, durable, easy to learn and race class, the WASZP offers accessibility to the world of foiling that the Moth cannot. A choice of three rigs provides options for 40 to 100 kilo sailors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Because of durability of the hull and foils, and the ease of use, the WASZP delivers a platform for both beginner foilers to advanced racers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The concept was for a foiler similar to a Moth, but answered all the sticking points that stop people buying a Moth; most importantly the cost. At just half the price of a Moth, the WASZP will provide a platform to enter the world of foiling for an entirely new audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
