Thanks for all replies the only reason I want to spend around the 1 grand mark is to see if i like them or not as would be a shame to spend 7k and find i prefer the 400.

Thats what i'm saying mate, to see if you like a 14 you would need a curent rules boat which you wont get for a grand! you will buy an old penny which no dis respect because they seem to have a better following then current rules! Isn't the same thing!

If you can't carry it, don't sail it!

For your money I think you could only get a very early new rules hull and they are much slower than current boats but you would be expected to sail to the same handicap.


I disagree obviously. I may not have 7 jibs a measly 3 compared to olly's but in the light it is just as quick as modern one. If not a touch quicker. and non foil 14s have a different hadicap!
