Fantastic answer. Any displacement mode monohull would be good. Today’s race showed how unequal these boats can sail when they one gets into the high teens and the other is doing 2 knots. Technologically brilliant but I’d like to see some actual match racing. I presume the races would be in the Solent but a boat to sail that water have differ requirements. Hopefully we’re not get ahead of ourselves

Whatever it is you can lay good money on it being a foiler so any hopes of 'proper' match racing are out of the window...
That said I have enjoyed the racing so far but it shouldn't be for the America's Cup...

Match racing Ultra 30s would be good to watch I think...
edit :- or what about Ultra 75s? No foils or ballast keel, 20 blokes on the wire and a simple rule akin to the 18' Skiffs, "75' overall, one hull, one centreboard, one rudder, one mast and three sails, the race starts at 11..."  Edited by Sam.Spoons - 16 Jan 21 at 11:14pm |

'Hoya' is a 'Ultra 30', think Hoya was the sponsor, race series was televised on the BBC in the nineties.
