International Moth

Singlehanded, radical development class that has seen some true innovations in sailing. Most Moths are now ultra-thin & ultra-light. The latest developments have been giving the Moths hydrofoils and foil wings. Previously known as the Olive or Inverloch 11ft when first sailed in Australia.
