"The
TAZ has a speckled
finish with non-slip
which is
non-abrasive and
very effective on
the deck side. Since
its sandwich
construction hull is
hollow, there is
room for inspection
hatches in the bow
and the transom
providing a small
amount of watertight
storage space for
spare clothes,
drinks or even
sandwiches".

"The
polyethylene inner
and outer surfaces
provided excellent
durability, while
the layer of foam in
between provides
stiffness and
flotation throughout
the hull".

"How
would the TAZ beat
to windward against
a strong spring ebb
tide in a gusty 25
knots of wind? This
scenario confronts
many coastal sailors
and the TAZ
performed extremely
well".

"The
TAZ is 2.95m in hull
length and 41kg in
hull weight. The TAZ
has plenty of room
for two children in
its cockpit and
unlike the Optimist
has a high boom that
should stay clear of
small heads. The
Design Category CE
Certificate for the
TAZ recommends a
maximum of two
people or 150kg,
which in theory
allows a suitably
enthusiastic 100kg
Dad to sail with his
child".
