u do when ur settings are right and theres ne form of wind - u can twin
wire in anything above a 4! i dnt know what wind u have sailed one in
but they are definetly much better in anything above a 4, in light airs
they suffer because of their hull weight. which if the class was made
development would be changed very soon!

i sail it in a 4-5 and i just feel that if you can sail one you can sail a 800 and that is a much beter boat and a lot more exiting

yes but if you are a keen sailor it is worth it but if you sail 1-2 times a year i can see why you go for a spice

You are right the RS800 is a much better boat. But, boat for money the spice is better. |

yer the 800 is a much better boat beacuse of the extra sail area and is much lighter!!

and if it went development, everything else would change too - hull shape, foils shape, rig shape, mast type etc etc.... and it would become an i14 ( ish ) ! |
