This year’s MSCA Annual Class Survey includes an update on a project proposal to explore a new smaller sail for the Musto Skiff. Read on for an overview of this project – and don’t forget to take part in the survey to have your say on this! The survey closes at 9pm (GMT) on Monday 21st December 2020.
A couple of years ago, the class voted to explore a new mainsail design. A test sail was made and trialed. This sail was not considered to be a sufficient advance to warrant further consideration.

As a follow-up to the update given in November, we would like to clarify the position on the potential equipment developments.
