The Ktaba 20 Teleri is inspired by the racing sloops of the early 20th century that dominated the eastern seaboard of the US, with sleek, graceful lines, long overhangs, and a 3/4 fractional Bermudian rig. The IOD class was developed as a standard "racing class" that would allow boats of different designers to be raced against each other, hence the name "one design". Because of their long overhangs, an IOD's waterline increases by about 50% when she heels over, thus increasing the hull speed, and racing performance. Some of the most famous and treasured sailboats from the golden age of sailing are IOD yachts, and many were built by the most famous yacht builders and designers - Herreshoff, Shields, Sparkman and Stephens, Alden, Luders, and Borresen, for a short list. The K20 Teleri MX is powered by both the WWC sailing system, and the B-wind sailing engine, modified tastefully by an expert scripter-sailor to closely mimic the behavior of a real racing sloop. She carries a skipper and two crew members, and features a low-lag, low-prim design that includes:
* mesh construction
* WWC or Bwind
* crew controls and balancing
* luffing sails
* wood trim
* windvane
* sculpted main, jib, and spinnaker
* custom-fitted textures
* custom animations
* easily-customizable mesh construction with "texture faces"
* various innovations (sonar hud, mainsheet, billowing sails, new algorithms "under the hood")
Feature-for-feature, the K20 Teleri stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the finest racing yachts in SL. A customized Teleri drew the highest bid at the 2012 Sail4Life auction - $58,580L!

Fun!
FYFAN. Såååå nice and so fun to race xD.
A classic that's fun to sail
This boat is amazing. I've tried many demos over the past 2 weeks and this boat beat them all. I was looking for a classic design which was fun to sail and this fits that need hands down. The HUD was the best surprise since the demo doesn't come with the HUD. This is the easiest HUD I used and found myself keeping the sails better trimmed because of it. This is both a great cruising boat and a well built racer. I look forward to this builder coming out with new boats in the future.
Wonderful tribute to the classic IODs
I find myself really enjoying this MX 20 Teleri 2. Classic design is well done aesthetically, and performance is clean. Craig did a wonderful job with this. I would write more, but I'm going back out on the water to enjoy it >.<
Great boat
Like the people say, this is a great boat. Good for a first sail boat, good if you have boats and want a cruiser that is stable, crosses sims well, and has a little zip. Very nice data interface allows you to sail efficiently. Lovely job.
Wonderful boat!!
Like this boat a lot, has some nice new features, the builder is a true perfectionist.
This ship is a must have if you like sailing is SL
Un esperado update!
A superb sailboat manufacturing and formidable and realistic performance in the seas of SL, while easy to navigate. My favorite among the best.
