Forget the Vario upwind they are a complete waste of space and compared to a Merlin not a chance in hell! Aero or Zero would be much better. |

If anybody did an analysis of that bastion of middle aged sailing, the Solo fleet, I suspect they might find that many of the guys who were in the top 10-15 in big Championship fleets when they were in their 30s and 40s are now (with a few exceptions), twenty years later, finishing 10-20 places below that they achieved at their peak. Maybe you could put an average elapsed time value on that and come up with an amended age-based handicap. The boat is not as physically demanding to sail as many others and so provides a good basis for comparison.
