MR-01, winner in moderne class
A radical interpretation of the class rules! The main idea of this drawings is to lowered at maximum the lead fixed by the rule, in accordance with the maximal bow’s concavity constraint. Thus to keep the wetted surface as weak as possible, the planking shows a large opening. .
