...I have been on sailing lessons and the boat I was taught on was a topper. After I compleated the course I went to the loch wich rented them out from then on I go at least every second week in all types of weather so I wish dad would finally get me a topper. they can be stored on a roof rack on your car and the often home with a small folding trailer. The rudder can be removed for stowage or travell the centre board raised/lowerd to diffrent hights,they are also light weight they also come in a wide range of colours ,you can upgrade them so they can be rowed when the wind drops but say you are going in an your topper and you run aground or crash into something wich cracks or punctures the hull or ruptures any I have been on sailing lessons and the boat I was taught on was a topper.
