‘FAMILY PACK’ - MX-Ray
can now go Double Handed for
fun and training!
We’ve developed a pack of parts which can be fitted to the boat
during ( or even after ) manufacture, to allow the MX-Ray
to be sailed by Father/Son, Mother/Daughter crews, or even by two
lightweights.
In this way the MX-Ray is sailed in true Skiff mode, with the crew handling the
mainsheet to windward ; Offwind the mainsheet is passed back to the helm
while the crew hoists the Asymmetric Spinnaker, the crew then plays the
kite sheet while the helm plays the main.
The ‘Family Pack’
includes, amongst others, items such as an extra forward toestrap, extra
non-slip pads on deck in front of the mainsheet, handholds for the crew
and helm, a shorter tiller, different spinnaker fairleads under the
sidedeck, and some other minor modifications. Now the whole Family can
enjoy the boat !
And Junior Too!

Junior Main and Kite !
Once, they’ve tried the boat with the Family Pack with Mum or
Dad, or just to enable the lightweights and younger members of the
family to sail the MX-Ray on
their own, we now have a Junior main and kite available !
The Junior main is a ‘roll up/zip away foot’ version of the
standard main to keep the costs down ( giving you a Standard main and Junior main all in one ! ! ) and to
allow them to progress to the standard rig as their ability and/or
weight increases. This brings the minimum helm weight down to approx.
8st / 50 kgs .
