Why would you want to consider Agile Wings? There are several sterling qualities that make this boat attractive.

First, she sails like a dream. More than once, we've gone sailing, and after carefully trimming the sails and setting the rudder, she will literally sail herself. Autopilot off. The first time we did it, I thought it was a fluke ... an unusal combination of wind aspect, velocity, and seas. But then, I've done it more times in markedly different conditions. She is a joy to sail. She is very light for her size, and with the twin genoas and fin keel, she is stunningly responsive. I thought I'd never feel the responsiveness in the Laser and Etchells in a boat this big, but I've been surprised. While you can't roll-tack her, you can feel her ease up as a puff of wind heels her over a little. She is a joy to sail.

She is very sturdy, owing to steel construction. Yet, she has a smooth radius-curved hull, not hard-chine construction. She is reliable. She has twin propulsion diesels, which offer unmatched redundancy, while moving the props out of the pimary slip-stream of the keel and rudder. The plumbing and electrical systems are extensive and robust. All hatches and ports are ocean-going cast frames (no penetrations through the lenses) rather than extruded. The rigging and hardware are a sight to behold.

Finally, she is not only unique, but she has (for those who like a flush deck) stunning appearance.
