Weta Square Top Mainsail Review - Jay Winick

August 28th, 2018

I got an excellent deal on hull #163 (obviously used) at the beginning of the season. She came with the original Gaastra sails which were crisp, but a little “dry” I would guess (I estimate they’re 7-8 years old).

George Morris's Mainsheet Mod, Findhorn Bay, Scotland

July 31st, 2018

I devote about 23 hrs a day to fiddling with the Weta mainsheet system in the hope of finding a geometry which feels comfortable. The latest iteration is described below. Before you collapse in a paroxym of hysterical laughter let me set out the drivers of this design. .

Weta Trimaran Review - Jay Winick

July 27th, 2018

I’m a long time sailor who got his first taste of sailing in a fair sized lake on Manitoulin Island in Ontario Canada as a kid. The first boat that I ever soloed was a Force 5 from AMF at 12 years old.

Video: Towing a Weta Trimaran - Myk Ryan

July 13th, 2018

I've always wanted to sail my Weta wherever I wanted, and a trailer makes that possible to a large degree. The ability of this boat to explore harbours and coastal areas, accessible by road and a beach or ramp, has spoiled me for choice as far as it goes.

Stuffed to the gills, USA

West Coast Weta Happy 10th Anniversary! It was 10 years ago today that our beloved Wetas arrived on the west coast of the US. Ten boats (#148 - #157) arrived via container to Richmond Yacht Club to nine owners that had never seen one or sailed one.
