WHAT THE SAILORS ARE SAYING…
Lots of usage, great durability, terrific fun, major adrenalin rushes, good friends, brilliant value for money – what more could a family want?
It is the best little person boat I have ever seen and I am not surprised by its rapid popularity.
…quite inspirational for young, inexperienced nippers! It demonstrated the value of real team work…what a great intro to double-handers and kite work!
With the Feva even the youngest sailors get all the action and fun of modern asymmetric racing.
