Those who restore classic yachts help maintain sailing history – from wooden schooners and meter boats to one-designs. Now, a more modern classic has been restored. George Radley Jr. of Cobh, Ireland, has owned the Ron Holland-designed IMP since the ’90s and has just done a major restoration of this famous 1970s IOR winner. Over the decades, the boat has kept her distinctive look with her topsides painted in a rainbow horizontal green bands going from light green to dark green at the waterline. Originally built for San Francisco sailor David Allen in 1977, the boat was a radical design that turned out to be a breakthrough on the IOR scene. Here is a video of IMP sailing off Cork, Ireland, with her new set of UK Sailmakers X-Drive carbon sails.

We had a blast racing the Corsair 760 this week topping 17 knots on a beam reach to the finish, and just gettling a little bit wet.

Are you ready for the warming up? Our Dehler 30 one design engine is already running... The Stealth Drive only comes to the fore when needed and is hermetically sealed behind its cover. We pair a small diesel engine (10 hp) with a rectractable shaft, which is controlled by a lever in the cockpit. This new drive concept is typically Dehler: designed for mass production and easy maintenance. To use the engine a simple pull on the lever is enough: the drive train folds down and the boat is ready to go under power. No water resistance and no chance that nets, seaweed or other foreign objects could tangle the prop and slow you down.
