(the 507 was devoloped and designed by Andrew Cook in Australia , from initial hull lines authored by Angus Richardson in the UK and after discussions with Footy class guru Brett Mccormack(having built one of his "bob about" designs in 2003.) the 507 not only fits the footy class, but can due to its construction be raced as a strict one-design footy!)
