SPACIOUS, DURABLE, SIMPLE, SAFE AND STABLE
Two people can sail the Taz, and it can also be sailed singlehanded. A child as light as 30kg can handle a Taz while it can carry 90kg, meaning that two children or an adult and child can sail together.
The hull is spacious and has the same cockpit capacity as some more expensive rivals. The unrivalled Topaz TRILAM construction produces a supremely durable hull with high levels of buoyancy. At just 40kg, the hull is also impressively lightweight, making the boat manageable, afloat and ashore, even for young children.
The Taz Plus comes with a mainsail and jib as standard. First-time sailors and schools favour the hard-wearing Dacron mainsail. The rig is simple and lightweight enough to be operated by a child single-handedly, although the Taz is often used as a two-person trainer or recreational dinghy.
It uses the same foils as the Topper, capable of dealing with all the knocks and bumps of beginner sailing. The self-draining cockpit, righting lines, and grab rails make sailing extremely safe.
The Taz has the highest quality equipment fitted as standard, making the boat a pleasure to sail and keeping gear failure to an absolute minimum. The boat also comes with a 3-year hull warranty.
