Going to be the Laser variants, experimenting with the new 'C' sails, makes them look current and dynamic.

If only the Contender was a contender.
The way that WS work, we will probably get a foiling Oppie as the boat of choice. |

So the Olympic Singlehander Trials are taking place in Valencia.
What do people think of the candidate boats? Which boat do they think will get in? Contenders are: Laser/Laser Radial D-Zero/D-Zero Blue Aero9/Aero7 Melges 14 (with 2 different rig sizes)
