The did sail with the 104 rating. (On the application and in there sails they were F16 however - so publicity anyway).

I can imagine an F16 with enough weight (to fit the 104) is the way to go in France if you want to reach/sell quite a few boats the coming year(s).

Chris Sproat would be sailing this weekends 104 championships in France on a Viper rumours go....

Anyway we had a great time (flat seas and big winds) so put this event in your agenda for next year ! :-)
