Audacity 21/22

Hi

Is there anyone who could give me some information, or a link to information, about a sailboat, the Audacity 21 or 22, constructed by Laurent Giles. It has a centerboard.

Regards: Jens Christian Mohr, Denmark

Could you give me a title ? I know of this book: 'Laurent Giles and his Yacht Designs' Adrian Lee and Ruby Philpott International Marine Publishing Co. 1991, but that book seems to be very difficult to get here in Denmark.

Sorry I was so short, here it is, "Laurent Giles, An Evolution of Yacht Design", by Adrian Lee and Ruby Philpott, foreward by Olin Stephens, ISBN 0(?) 7136 3320 0(?), mine is from 1990. There are four pages on the Audacity and the Audacity class including (actually most of it) a talk (speech/lecture) by Giles from 1959.

I think it may be the same book, maybe they changed the title in the other edition?
Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...glance&s=books

MacNaughton uses this book in his school:

but I don't see it in his order form,
