And to discount the development in bigger boats seems a little silly, There have been a lot of things developed in the AC that scale down very well, Have a look at the Hulls on the F20C and compare them to the floats on USA17.
Macca read the posts carefully, to repeat myself "I am a foil convertee however and I do believe all new design boats will go down this path and the more the likes of the AC and C Cats develop the foils we can only benefit in the smaller, size wise, classes ".
Yes the F20c's appears a fast boat ( sort of remember that it didn't do so well at the 3 Piers race this year ) but how much of that is hull shape, a combination of hull shape and foil or just the foils alone. I guess time will tell us one way or other.
