Agree - that's why I'd go with the Nacra 4.5 numbers - the 4.5 has more sail and is a longer boat, which puts Rich slightly on the more difficult side of the rating. Boat weight sounds about right. Just a jumping off point for him to get onto the course. Hopefully, his race organizers are sending their data to Darline.

After watching Lionel Messi play, I realize I need to sail harder.
