so this shouldn't be hard ......

I'm prepared to buy any singlehanded boat to class race on the south coast, needs to be high standard

So far all I can see is:

Lasers stokes bay (typical 5-10 boats)
Contenders Weston (typical 4-5 boats)
Solos at spinnaker or portchester (5-10 boats)

Any suggestions?

Why is it so hard to find fleet racing?

Foxers is a good suggestion, can't see any evidence of aeros or d-zeros in the results at those clubs

Thanks Matt -

aero 7s at Lym is in its infancy, not all boats delivered yet - Simon can explain more when he sees this, but definitely proper fleet racing on the 2015 agenda.

Having sailed a Foxer a few times I really think you would have to be a martyr to the fleet racing cause to buy one.

To my mind their sailing qualities are not great...

There is a reasonable fleet of Blazes at Warsash.
