The Tasar is a fiberglass 2 person sailing dinghy with a mainsail and jib. Designed by Frank Bethwaite of Sydney in 1975, the boat is technologically advanced. Aimed at a husband and wife/parent and child crew, it is designed for a combined crew weight of 140 kg. The hull weighs 68 kg, and is of sandwich foam construction. The hull has a fine angle at the bow to reduce wave impact drag with unusually clean and sharp chines aft to ensure very free planing and outstanding stability. The foam cored hull is stiff and light and the advanced hull shape, together with an innovative rig which combines a rotating mast with a fully battened main sail, allows the Tasar to plane upwind with the crew normally hiked. The wide beam and a cockpit designed for comfortable hiking make the Tasar easy, fun and very exciting to sail in winds up to . The Tasar is an international class, with strong fleets in Australia, USA, Britain, and Japan. The 2013 world titles are to be held at Cascade Locks, Oregon. 2006 saw the introduction of new PET film sails. In addition, the hull moulds have recently been updated and over 50 new hulls have been sold worldwide in the past five months. The Tasar is constructed to the same specifications by licensed builders in Singapore and Canada. This keeps all boats as similar as possible and ensures a true one design class. ==Championships== The 2011 World Champions are Australian husband and wife team, Paul and Bronwyn Ridgway.
