The Weta is a big hit again - this time at the London boat show - January 2008
The Weta was launched into the UK market at the London Boat Show on January 10. It was a late entry but made a big impact. A common comment was “why has no one done this before?” The UK sailors are very knowledgeable with a vast pedigree in dinghy sailing. There are a large number of yacht clubs with a strong sailor base with many sailing in challenging conditions. Simon Currey of Weta Marine UK has a massive task to demonstrate the Weta throughout the country to satisfy the demand to see it in action. The RYA has made room for the Weta at the Dinghy Show in early March as it is an important development in the UK sailing scene.
There was strong interest from Sailability backed up with a large order of Weta. This development is very exciting.
With restricted storage for multihulls at many clubs the packaging of the Weta was a strong point in its favour along with its simplicity and performance.
