I believe that DCB has quite a lot of rocker which sweeps the stern wave up and off the transom. Does that mean that a boat of lesser performance but similar characteristics would also benefit? How about a "T" foil Wayfarer?

Like this one?
Great book for Club Sailors here

The biggest insult is for the n12 owner, fancy someone thinking you hi-tec 12 is dog of a 420.

Don't.  Next we'll have someone from the N12 CA on here telling us at no point in the past, present or future has anyone N12 sailor tried to pass their boat off as a 420.
Successfully confusing ambition with ability since 1980.

It will be great to see you guys turn up at the Tiger Trophy so that you can inspect the rudders with the new glasses you have just bought!  I think 16 boats will be attending, they are the ones with 420 on the sails.
You may even have time to have a chat with some of the parents who have to drive the sailors to the event as most of the sailors don't drive.  The national coach will be there racing a Fireball, trying to beat his sailors!
 
Best all race against them on the water in the true sailing spirt and sportsmanship like most of these young sailors do each weekend as they may just be an olympical sailor in a few years.
 
keep sailing
