18s and 18ft skiffs are diferent ratface, don't know what the 18 is though... I know Dennis Watson will probably be changing from non foiling to foiling.. But he might not be coming after soem teething problems with the boat!

18s would be the National 18's. I'll let you find the rest out yourselves.

Yes probably, never seen a proper foiling 14 race.

I think fully foiling is banned! I know it was experimented with, i wouldnt fancy it to be honest that kite in 15 knots on foils ankle breaker!

 yea, I wonder why no one has tried it with the 49er since Greenhalgh and Richardson... Same reason I guess, not everyone has a death wise.

Seen a video on youtube of an 18ft skiff foiling

Fully foiling isn't banned, just made very unattractive. If I remember correctly you are only allowed one 'foil'.

If you're talking about a national 18, there was one at the Bloody Mary, as we found out when sailing by yelling "what boat is that?" It was a three man boat, two hiking and one trapeze, which looked an odd combination.  Looked nice though, was rather quick.
