Owners Comments
Red Ruby has proven to be a fun, fast boat to race competitively in both IRC and ORC races across Europe, repeatedly exceeding our expectations. From the first time we went sailing and saw 18 knots of boat speed 10 minutes after putting up the sails until winning the IRC DH European Championships recently, Red Ruby has proven to be a well thought out platform that is easy to sail shorthanded at a high level.
