The problem is that whatever boat you assign some will be favoured some will be disadvantaged. Either because of their physical size or skillset.

It is an interesting diversion but, in my view, hardly a definitive way to declare who is best of the best in the world of dinghy sailing.

Great idea - and perhaps the Ent on alternate years ?

The Alb, as great as it is, isn't quite the fastest 2 sail dinghy - Tasar ? It may well be the most suitable however ?
