This thread is rapidly heading towards the top of the table for popularity in terms of numbers of replies. It's obvious I suppose that because we sail fast boats, speed particularly interests us. So, where are we going with this debate? Measurement methods aside, it would appear that we are all keen to see some form of 'record' for catamarans - possibly by class/type or length?

Say a series of records based on the 'F' measurements? F14 through to F20?

IF WE COULD AGREE a measurement method, record attempts could possibly be grafted onto a regatta by RC's for those people that wanted to have a go. Or are we talking about a specific event(s) set up in an 'ideal' area (known for good breezes and flat water).

I'd be interested to know what people's thoughts are and where this thread is really headed.
