Yes, VERY different.

From what I can gather (I still cannot get a measurement certificate for the boat, nearly 12 months after it raced at Carnac, I wonder why)!

My guesstimate is that the N17 in its current guise would rate around 1.02 on SCHRS (F18 is 1.005; Tornado 0.935).

THe N17 has larger sails and a longer mast than the EU inter 17 that the above rating comes from; we believe the hulls are lighter too.

But, without a measurement certificate, it's all guess work.
