Most points are correct except.
<br>
<br>"The boats are 110lbs lighter and much easier to handle"
<br>
<br>They are that much lighter but with a bigger mainsail than an I-20 it will be hard to proof that it handles MUCH better. Spi size is nearly the same as the F18 size.
<br>
<br>"20sm max Mainsail area (incl mast),..."
<br>
<br>Bimare will or has replaced its F18 HT with the Javeling 2 with has only 19sm max.
<br>
<br>
<br>"the A-Cat class is the second largest cat racing class (H-16 are first)"
<br>
<br>Last count was :
<br>
<br>H16
<br>F18
<br>Dart 18
<br>F20 (US I-20)
<br>A-class / tornado
