The METEOR is the open cockpit version of the TALLSTAR. Thanks to METEOR owner and Sailstar expert, Dave Whitney, for providing updated information on all Sailstar models.
Data also from ‘Boating’ Magazine, Jan,1965.
Thanks to TOPAZ owner “Lee from Canada’ for providing pictures and information on this rare model.
His comments are as follows:
“There are two designs slightly different than one another. The earlier design (attached picture) includes a small forward hatch, plus a 3-stay rigging. The Sailboatdata page (originally) lists these boats’ manufacture starting in 1970. However, the article I attached shows they have been around since at least 1965. The Sailboatdata Topaz picture is the later design and includes a larger forward hatch area, a top-load lazarette, and a 6-stay rigging.”
Originally called FIRST 260 SPIRIT.
Fixed keel draft: 1.45m/4.76′
