Ad for April 1994

Colin Moore isn't Kwazy, but his boat is.

Kwazy, Colin's Wylie Wabbit, won division honors in the Berkeley-Metropolitan Midwinters, the Richmond Small Boat Midwinters, the Jazz Cup, the Ong Regatta, The Great Pumpkin -- the victories just seem to multiply.

And it's all by design. There's a Pineapple mainsail designed to match the Wabbit's adjustable rig, a jib that is clearly shaped for San Francisco Bay conditions and a spinnaker optimized for powerful reaches. There's even a designer crew: Rolf (and) Lorn (in polo shirts?).

Sailing is an art. Sailmaking is a fine art.

And winning is definitely in style.
