If Ben has gotten the hang of sailing his wing, he will be a contender.

The wings got potential, but its unlikely tp be perfect on the first attempt. Also, of course, C Class cats race in very clean wind. In contrast, there will be 100 boats at the A Class worlds.

If they were not quicker, why would the C class use them?

It may (or may not) be quick, but that LR2 is one ugly duck. The wing, on the other hand, is beautiful - although I'd be suprised if it proved quicker than a normal sail.
