Think sloop rig will divide the class like it is in the F16's? Sloop rig kills over 8 knots, uni rules under 8 knots. Think a spinaker fleet is around the corner?
Hardly a worthwhile comparison, f16 sloop is raced two up uni raced solo . A class sloop or uni will only ever race in class solo , f16 sloop has greater sail area overall than uni , A class sloop will have same overall sail area as uni .
would be intresting to see what the SCHRS handicap system would make of the two setups though as its considered a "fair " indication of performance against the reality of on the water results in this champion ship .
spinnaker set ups have been perfected on a class over the last few yeas with no significant take up outside class racing
