I'm looking at getting out of my Nacra F18 and into something I can sail either alone or with my sons (ages 10 and 12) - boats that need crews suck!
Options in Australia are Blade, Viper & Taipan but I would prefer to stay with AHPC.
I think I would sail 2-up mostly in club races and 1-up for championships.
Seems to me the Viper works best as a sloop because of its volume. Would a Taipan unirig be 'more optimised' as an F16 than a Viper unrig?
I know there is a weight difference and I don't want to be the instigator of yet another weight argument - I am more interested in how volume effects performance in unirigs.
