Tornado medal race. Sizable waves and only 13 knots of breeze. The guys were also trying to slow the boats down on the downwind.

From my experiences with F16s on my F18, the F18 is slightly quicker upwind. Downwing the sloop F16 is close to the F18 whilst the cat rigged F16 is simular speed but slightly better VMG. However, the sloop F16 and F18 have an advantage turning corners.
