For pictures and videos of the boat, please visit http://rumblur.com/Photos.asp?id=25 About the Melges 24: he boat is 24 feet (7.3 m) long and 8 feet 2 inches (2.49 m) wide at the beam. It carries around 1000 square feet (93 mē) of sail area, main, jib and spinnaker combined. Upwind, it has a mainsail and 100% jib. Downwind, it has a large 670 square foot (62 mē) asymmetrical spinnaker that flies from a retractable bowsprit. The boat's hull is made from lightweight fiberglass. The mast, rudder, bowsprit, and keel fin are made from carbon fiber for light weight. The hull is generally flat on the bottom, making it plane easily. The 630 pound (286 kg) keel bulb can retract up to the hull bottom to make it easier to put on a trailer. The boat is generally raced with a crew of four or five. Because the boat sails faster with a heavier crew, class rules for racing limit crew weight to 827 pounds (375 kg) total. Unlike most spinnaker-rigged keelboats, the Melges 24 is designed so that no foredeck work is required to fly the spinnaker; it is launched, trimmed, and doused from the cockpit.
