We know Dirk indeed,

When I read the race report it says the F16's started 70-48 = 22 minutes behind the weta's. T the finish line the F16 was 1 min 15 sec behing the first boat (a weta) sailed by Dirk. In short it was a staggered start were the start time was relative to your handicap. This some impressive speed by the weta though ! 21 minutes lost during 150 minutes of sailing = only 14 Texel handicap points slower then the F16's.

The weta's Texel handicap is about 130 so the weta did sail alot faster then its rating or the F16's sailed alot slower then their ratings.
