Peter Vink was first over the line on a F20c with t-foils. First F16 is way back in 19th place corrected...I thought light boats were always faster? Oh wait that's a different thread.


Eeewwww snarky, I'll have some of that. Is the talent level on the top F18 equal to the top F16? A little tid bit that is often conveniently left out to support the story teller's position. It does make me chuckle when people take the position that a lighter boat is somehow at a disadvantage because it's light. All things being equal a lighter platform is ALWAYS faster then one that is heavier.
