The International Swift Solo

Design and Construction Features:

• S-glass / carbon Kevlar construction with beautiful cedar core (instead of foam) for extraordinary durability and a long competitive life

• Self tacking / self sheeting jib for manageability, balance and speed

• Stand up and walk through design for easy tacking and jibing

• Self launching spinnaker and spinnaker pole with automatic halyard cleating and uncleating for quick and easy sets and douses

• All carbon spars including spinnaker pole for easy righting and a lower center of gravity

• Innovative on-boom sheet cleating and single sheet control system for main and jib—a must for three sail single handed sailing.

• Jib halyard and tack adjustments led to both wings for easy jib luff and leech control

• All standing rigging is adjustable on-the-water

• Sailcloth and sail design oriented around long term durability and competitive life expectancy

3 years of non-stop research and development have produced the fastest easy-to-handle single-handed skiff available.

Design emphasis was placed on safety since single-handed sailing and training is often done outside of the view of potential rescuers. The rig and sail design was developed for on-the-water adjustability to permit rapid mast bend changes for de-powering.

Best of all, you can go sailing or racing without dealing with another crew members’ schedule. You’ll find yourself on the water far more often with significantly less hassle.

Our rules have an eye toward keeping long-term costs at a minimum while allowing running rigging innovation.

We think you’ll find our people to be the friendliest and most helpful sailors anywhere. Come and join our revolutionary class by building your own. Building this skiff is far easier than it looks.
