I'm just not convinced and will be very interesting to see the foiling 18 compete against a competitive non-foiling 18, if that ever happens. Saying that though, the Hyrdroptere design is quite large in scale and is very successful, but reckon the foiling 18 needs a whole new rig developed with new sail plan to be successful. It works just now as it is but looks like it could be optimised much further. |

Claimed to be as quick downwind but doubt very much that it's the same case upwind....... |

Or in light airs on any point of sailing. What is the take-off windspeed for Cherubs and 12ft Skiffs, anyone?

ye i know the 18 is prob faster upwind and prob a bit smoother ride downwind but the 12 just looks fun. Ur right the Daemon isnt going to be any diffrent beacuse their was 2 cherub that came 1st and 2nd in the 12ft national last year! Edited by Ginger_69 |
