As we are constantly hearing how good the cherubs are I wondered why there were none at the battle of the classes?

I can understand what he means though- an awful place to sail a high performance assymetric- the first assymetric was a fair way down in 10th, the first fast one down in 15th.

I tried for a late entry in the Cherub but it was full.

It would have been fun but not an ideal course for asymetric trapezers and even less ideal for the short waterline of the Cherub. If the wind was sufficiently scewed to avoid too much tacking and extra distance gybing downwind it might help but then the wind would also be that much more gust/lull between the buildings as well. More suited to hiking boats with sym spins or no spins at all.
