Oh and GARY, I haven’t used any of the results in light to drifter conditions as those are the conditions that the F14 proves to be MORE than competitive with F18's and A class etc, and as such I tend not to use those results as those "very light" conditions are the ones that sailors who get beaten tend to say that "luck" was the major player in the results.
Similarly with the heavier conditions (in which we find it easier to more than just hold the F18's) I use the 7 to 10 knot range as that is the tightest range of conditions for us to compete with the larger boats, and I feel it is the range where ability and experience of the competition count the most.
