Sarah,

The EU I-17 version is put in the start fleet with the Hobie and Prindle 16's/18's because it is of a comparable speed. Sure enough the I-17R (F17 now) is alot faster and comes close to what it should be. In that sense it is a good boat. Still, there is no need to claim it is the fastest option of all mentioned.
Urm, under SCHRS these boats ahve the following handicaps :
Inter 17 with kite (as sailed 99% of the time) - 107
Hobie 18 - 104
Hobie 16 - 116
Prindle 16 - 119
Prindle 18 - 110
Are you really saying that you have a spread of 15 points (nearly 15%) on your handicap fleet - If we did this in the UK there would be uproar !!!!!!
Our handicap spreads are usually :
<108
108-118
118 +
This really surprises me !
