With the theme of the 2020 RYA Dinghy Show being 'where will sailing take you?' we have compiled a series of interviews with sailors who used to be members of the Scottish Topper Squad. What have they been up to since they left the squad? Next up is Niamh Harper who, in her last year in the boat, won the Topper Series , came 3rd in the Topper Nationals and 3rd at the Topper Worlds in Garda. What is she up to at the moment?

? Full test in Multihulls World N°202: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/dragonfly-36-performance-for-gliding-along-as-fast-as-the-wind ? While boot Düsseldorf, the world's largest indoor boat show, might not be bursting at the seams with sail-cruising multihulls, the 2025 edition of the event is nonetheless the setting for an unmissable preview - we're talking about the Dragonfly 36! Quorning Boats has always been a staunch supporter of this German boat show - in fact, 5 years ago, it was here that the manufacturer's previous new model, the Dragonfly 40, was unveiled. But back to the 36: This trimaran, which can still be folded thanks to its further optimized Swing Wing system, has taken two and a half years to develop. In terms of design, this all-new model is the first Dragonfly to feature three inverted bows - until now, the central hull has always retained a traditional bow shape. Unsurprisingly, the 36 is available in both Touring and Performance versions, the latter having a rig 2 meters (6½ feet) taller. What's more unusual is that the profile is in carbon on both models. Below deck, the new interior design features double cabins forward and aft, a separate bathroom, a fully equipped galley and a spacious saloon. The standard finish is in ash, with elm as an option. By the time we visited, on day 3 of the boat show, the yard had already taken 15 orders. The Dragonfly 36 is looking like a best-seller... We've already made an appointment for a test sail. ?
