from SA this morning on the F18 fleet:
...if you’re looking for a fast fleet that allows out-of-the-box boats and decade-old designs to race competitively, this is the one
is this really a true statement?
The class was built on that premise 2 decades ago and it's a formula that works and works well. No, it's not a class for everyone and if you want the latest and greatest go fast with steep price tags the class is not for you.
The Infusion is 10 years old and in my opinion is the best all around shape.
Clearly I'm a huge fan and very bias so take the opinion for what it is worth.
