And watch out, Mork bought a 17 at the end of last season (another strong class in Div 14).

As you've said before Matt, the 18 is a (over minimum) weight tolerant boat and the 20 even more so (both 295# crew min). We're racing a '94 model at 305 to 310 and wish we weighed 330 plenty of times. OK, heard all the horror stories about the earlier 20's and transom problems. Ours is fine, we keep the beam bolts tight and watch for cracks (none yet). Doesn't George have a 20 as well as an 18?

Much gratitude for Wessels ('05 18/20 NAC, '06 14 NAC) and Mork ('06 18/20 NAC) and the countless others of both Divisions 7 and 14 who keep these events continuing on.
