In this second session, Robert discussed the safety features of the Norwalk Islands Sharpies. Bruce Kirby, the designer of the NIS range, had the 1979 Fastnet race* in mind when penning the original 26 footer. The design has a proven safety record, and in this session those issues are reviewed.

*from Wikipedia:
"A worse-than-expected storm on the third day of the race wreaked havoc on the 303 yachts that started the biennial race,[1] resulting in 19 fatalities (15 yachtsmen and four spectators). Emergency services, naval forces, and civilian vessels from around the west side of the English Channel were summoned to aid what became the largest ever rescue operation in peace-time. This involved some 4,000 people, including the entire Irish Naval Service's fleet, lifeboats, commercial boats, and helicopters.[2][3]"
