Got an old RYA yearbook somewhere (60's I think) which describes such a race with Hornets and 505s (and others). One problem seems to have been that the safety boats took at least an hour longer than the fastest dinghies (no outboards and RIBs in those days).

A couple of friends of mine did the crossing for the anniversary.

It took 4 1/2 hours to cross and 6 hours to return !
