Atom Ant 0 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 What was gorilla biscuits? this is all that I could find on it http://www.sailinganarchy.com/fringe/2006/animal_biscuts.php Animal Biscuits is a recent Shaw design whereas Gorilla Biscuits is an early sportboat if you like. It came to fame because it was so much faster than anything else out there. The usual thing in sport occurred and it got more or less banned cause no one could beat it. There was a thread which included GB quite a while ago. Hang on.... here it is http://archive.crew.org.nz/viewtopic.ph ... cc63245a18 It is/was a way cool boat, way ahead of its time and revolutionised sport boat sailing in NZ.
