They should all be boats designed within this current century, no lipstick munters.

Choose from: Aardvark Rocket thing, Alto, Aero, Aura, D0, D1, RS100,RS500, X0, X1

Have I missed any? (That single hander merlin thing i can't remember, it's made of wood so should be disqualified anyway and the designer shot for perpetuating merliness).

I apologise for thinking the Tornado was Canadian design, as I was trying to spread this round the Commonwealth how about a one design C class from the Canadian team.

Mens 2 handed - Firefly with the flattop main, extended mast and gnav developed by the Yanks
Mens Singlehanded - standard Firefly
Womens Double - standard Firefly
Womens Singlehanded - Firefly with storm sails

Finale - with 6 sailors per country on site - Team racing with each Commonwealth country represented.

Simple, cheap (no need to buy new boats) and team racing corresponds to TVs vast appetite for 'stadium sailing'

Sorry 505 is on dodgy ground much as I love the boat. It is an English designed boat that was redesingned to French rules.

Wash my mouth out! The French have rules? Change that to Javelin then (Peter Milne)
