Worth knowing
Rondar Raceboats Ltd.; cover, cost and conditions
Rondar Raceboats Ltd. is a boatbuilder in Wiltshire, England, specialising in racing dinghies and small keelboats. It builds class boats to fixed class rules, among them the 505, the K6, the Enterprise and the Firefly. Rondar works with epoxy and polyester resins, foam sandwich and vacuum moulding, so that hulls stay strong and durable while light enough to race. A Rondar is therefore recognised by its class rather than a house style: a Rondar 505 is a 505, built by Rondar.
Our records list nine Rondar models, all sailboats. Six carry the yard name: the Rondar 505 at 5.05 metres, Enterprise at 4.05, Firefly at 3.66, K 6 at 5.6, Sonar at 7 and Viper 640 at 6.4 metres. These six run into the latest build years, the K 6 from 2000, the 505 from 2004 and the Sonar from 2013. Three more class boats appear without the yard name, the 420, Cadet and Lark, each from 2005 to 2015. Lengths run from 3.22 metres for the Cadet to 7 metres for the Sonar.
Racing boats travel a lot, from club to open meeting to championship, so a sound trailer, a good top and bottom tarpaulin and padded supports matter as much as the boat itself. Dinghies like to be stored dry and slightly tilted so water drains away; keelboats such as the Sonar and Viper are lifted out between seasons. Foils and the hull bottom deserve a careful check after every event.
