Title: Graupner Wega
Post by: ACTion on May 03, 2011, 11:16:16 am

I've been asked by our Australian agent if I know of anyone who has bought and sailed one of these and can give some valid comments on its merits/drawbacks etc - you know the sort of thing: completeness, ease of building, quality of materials and instructions, seakeeping, handling etc. There is some interest over there but JD doesn't want to order any unless he's happy the model is OK. Shipping cost on a kit like this to Oz is VERY expensive so he doesn't want such an investment to remain on the shelf for too long.
Can anyone out there assist, please?

That video of the Wega under power makes it look absolutely ridiculous.
