Tornados beat planing 18-foot skiffs around the buoys, but the 18-foot skiffs seem to exhibit the highest absolute absolute top speeds.
Higher top speeds as quoted by Bethwaite..... Even the Skiffies take what he says with a grain of salt. I believe he also quoted a rediculous max speed for a Tasar once (over 20 knots from memory).
I wounder why the 18s have never done any form of measured speed runs....... Hard to BS timed runs.
