August 19, 2025Aug 19 Does anyone know where the following RG65’s are moulded. Electronica Uno Scurry have also looked at IVY from Vamsails, but ruled out on time for delivery (9 months +) and cost.
August 19, 2025Aug 19 Electronica, only 2 built, no longer in production. Uno, Vam in SPAIN, now replaced with Ivy. Scurry, Alex Corry I think, not moulded a boat for a few years now. RG class is massive in Europe, over 70 entries for French Nationals and over 40 for Dutch Nationals but struggle in the UK, mainly down to the lack of builders but a great size to 3D print.
August 19, 2025Aug 19 Author Thanks for reply Graham, clears up a lot for me, been a hard search, probably found out more on Facebook sites. I imagine in a few years we may end up with one or two suppliers in the UK. I believe Dave Creed used to do a kit or a hull and fin as well, have used his fins before on IOM’s found them to be good quality. Have sent What’s app
August 19, 2025Aug 19 Author Another question, does any one supply Skyshark 7PT tubing in 1050 mm in the UK again something available in Europe but hard to source here in UK, have even tried Benson Kites in Cornwall for this one
August 20, 2025Aug 20 Sails etc. use the Sky Shark 7pt tubes in their rg65 rigs and also list tapered carbon tubes which are probably the same items. Worth an enquiry...
August 20, 2025Aug 20 If you are looking for a Scurry and willing to consider a pre-owned boat, I may consider parting with mine, built by Alex Cory in 2017, little used. Located on the South Coast at Eastbourne.

August 20, 2025Aug 20 I was thinking circa £675, it's difficult to price but that is under half of what it cost me in 2017. 4 rigs A1 A2 B and C. Foils were by Robot I believe. Fitted with an analog servo (low power consumption in idle) lever arm. Savox digital rudder servo. Sails by Catsails. Contact by WhatsApp on 07548 875663 if interested to avoid cluttering up on here

Worth an enquiry... As an add on to the above, I had an email from Tim at Benson Kites re Skyshark tubing in longer lengths to try to make masts in one piece. his reply is below for anyone interested. Dont know if these tubes are usable on an RG65, or maybe to thick......... Hi Andy, the longest I have is some old (used) Sky Shark 8P at 94cm, they're not pretty but structurally still sound. The 8P were made specially for the Airbow kite and are extra stiff. You can make them look nicer by sanding them in a drill with wet and dry paper. Postage is £10.00 The rods will be £7.50 each...
November 27, 2025Nov 27 @andywright1 , are you still looking for a boat?I have an Uno which I will be looking to sell soon.I also have some of the sky shark masts knocking around if you still need
November 27, 2025Nov 27 Author I bought a Scurry, and actually found a supplier for Sky shark tubing as mentioned above in my previous post. If I hear of anyone wanting an RG65 I will let you know, what price would you be looking at,and where are you situated. you can send me a pm if you like. I have just done the RGTT11 at Woodspring and managed 5th overall in TT11. so veery please with my boat
