Guys guys guys,

 there's only one boat! The Laser 5000, have you ever been on the receiving end of 180kgs traveling at 20 knots with racks out the sides by 6 feet and a 6 foot pole out the front?

Well neither have I  but I can put you in touch with people who have (and they're still getting therapy )

We have had a "cough" few incidents with other boats over the years and except for once never a scratch. The once we almost sank a Flying fifteen but it meant we took a chip out of our gelcoat!.....oh and bent one of the racks.

And it was an accident!!!!!

oh well that was nice...

 can the topper really be allowed to compete if it is injection moulded, isnt that a bit close to rotomould?

continuing from the taking out the moth idea... if we were to run team events like this, 3 per team about 5 teams at a time, last team standing? that opens it up for a whole variety of tacticts, cheese wires,  t-boning from both sides, one boat covering the other team so his team mate has an easy kill. also it could make pirate tacticts much more feasable.

The Topper has two win.. disturbingly solid, but even more disturbingly good at inflicting chisel like injuries below the waterline....

Nah the moth doesnt stand a chance.  Team up with another boat, sail either side of the moth with rope/boom/spinny pole/etc inbetween the two boats.  Hit the foils... break the foils... = moth dead.
