Yes 18ft skiff at ordinary windspeeds and sailed by olympians. RS800 probably for mere mortals who have spent plenty of time practicing. Laser 4000 for weekend sailors in plenty of breeze. I could go on and include a 5o5 (which doesn't fit my idea of a skiff) but must be the fastest thing in very little wind. But now thinking about it, is a Moth a skiff, and if so it must have the highest speed to length ratio? Have I mudded the water enough? |

I have been set a mission of finding the fastest skiff style dingy so I would like to put it to the gurus that regularly frequent this website to come up with a final solution. The size has to be between 4-6 metres and we are not going down the cat road. Price no object just all out speed. Give me your best ideas and get creative. |
