Victoria
The emphasis of the Victoria is on simplicity and fun, and to these ends check out the Victoria Resource Center for the latest building, tuning, and sailing tips, along with other interesting and useful information about the boat.

The boat itself is made of heavy duty PVC-type plastic, and is quite durable, capable of surviving virtually any mishap or collision. The kit also includes high quality aluminum spars, sails, and all necessary fittings. All you need to do is add a two-channel radio and you're ready to sail. Construction is generally a weekend project. The ease of assembly also makes the Victoria a great "club" boat, as new skippers can buy a boat and join the racing with a minimum of trouble and expense.

As currently established by the class rules , the Victoria One Design is tightly controlled in terms of hull, fin, bulb, and rudder, while still allowing some minor variations in terms of sails and rig. This gives skippers a solid one-design boat with a little room to experiment.
