International Moth Class Association
About the Boat. The international Moth Class is the fastest one Person Dinghy in the World. Key Facts: Maximum Length: 3.355 m. Maximum Beam: 2.250 m. Total Weight: Unrestricted (~ 35-40 Kg) Maximum Sail Area: 8.25 m². Optimum Skipper Weight: 60-80 Kg.
INTERNATIONAL MOTH SPEED GUIDE
Max vang should be achieved in 15 knots and max cunningham in 18 knots. The Moth gets overpowered quickly, and from 18 knots upwards a softer tip or different sail is required. North's LA and DS designs have a slight variation in the luff rounds to cover the range, with the DS being aimed at 14 knots true wind speed.

Boats we love: International Moth
Sailing out when 'low riding' (that's before you can get up enough speed to get the boat flying above the water on its foils) is pretty tricky and involves some nimble footwork. If you are learning to sail a foiling Moth you have to expect the odd swim, so this isn't for people who don't like the water.
