“Stella Polare”, sistership to “Corsaro II” descendant to 1953 “Baccarat” and “Ma Jong” but on a larger scale. Marginally adapted for the RORC rule; with a small amount of tumble home in the top sides, allowing for a more favorable rating. There are small differences between “Corsaro II” and “Stella Polare” although the design is numbered the same.
