2008 Mini Transat 650

Every other year about 100 small single-handed racing boats fight for the first place in the Atlantic- crossing race from France to Caribbean. They are known as Mini 650 Transat class. Hundreds of them race around Europe. They are light and trailerable even behind smaller vehicles. They are very fast, easily planning, with maximum speeds of production division boats around 16-18 knots. Tip Top is a production division Mini 650, a little less extreme and a lot less costly than pure racing machines of the prototype division. Prototype division boats achieve speeds of 25+ knots.
