My answer... It's not fast! but the N17 is half baked... so the best of the world... make do.... Its the same for everyone!

Hi Mark,
I strongly advice you to chat with the teams who sail the 17 (rather than basing your opinion on press photos) when it comes to the speed, performance and excitement of the 17.....it is a real test of sailing skills and fitness.......better still get someone to take you out on one.....I guarantee you will understand then!
