New Zealander - Brin Wilson

Another day, another new boat to consider. This one is in OZ so I will go and look at the weekend.

It is a Brin Wilson 37 and for me looks good. A bit different to what we have looked at before.

Does anyone have any info about Brin particularly as a designer? There seems to be lots of info as a builder (of great reputation) but as a designer the information is not so free flowing?

You may want to try asking the question at the NZ sailing forum crew.org.nz. The people there are very knowledgable and very helpful.

Re: New Zealander - Brin Wilson

G'day, James. Yes, Brin Wilson has a very good reputation for his design and build work here in New Zealand. The key will be for you to determine if, he in fact, built the boat himself. As you might know, a lot of Kiwis over the years would get designs and then "home build" them in the "back yard". Cheers.
