Yes, I believe for most of us it is more about money than "Ultimate Performance". And as we saw with the Inter 20 class here in the States, too many boy-girl crews think a 20 footer is just "too much boat", thus they are moving to the f18, even though it is rated slower than the 20, and just as heavy, and nearly as expensive, actually more expensive really, if you are comparing a new F18 ($15,000) to a used I20 ($10,000).

Here's how we do it in America: http://www.break.com/index/snlnarnia.html

Like he says, "It's all about the Hamiltons!" (Hamilton's picture is on our $10. bill)


Heh? You're comparing used boat pricing vs. new boat pricing? A new N20 is in the $19k range while the F18s are floating around the $14.5 to $15.5 mark. Apples to apples. Used N20s can be had for $8k to $11k - same goes for used F18s.
