Our Boats
BWRYS Inc like a number of clubs in NSW have adopted the Soling One Meter as an entry level class. The Soling One Meter is readily available as a low priced kit from hobby shops or from the internet. This boat sails well, unlike some of the kit boats that are available.
The philosophy behind the Soling One-Meter class is that a first-time skipper should be able to get into model yacht racing with a boat that has essentially no performance differences between boats built by an expert. All aspects related to performance are intended to be restricted to what can be achieved by building the kit straight from the manufactures plans. Other aspects not affecting performance are not as strictly controlled.
