A few larger photos of the 4 plank aside lug-rigged Apple, without any internal ballast, in light and fresh to strong winds.

However, with 125kg of internal ballast, she is for the single-hander a sit-in, sit-still style of dayboat of considerable power that will still plane off the wind.

Reefing is simple and fast, done without dropping the main into the boat, accomplished within 30 seconds with only a little practice.
