No-no-no-no, both the blue and yellow boats are good looking. White is plain boring.

Might be that painter has breathed to much solvents tough..

It makes perfectly sense for me to forbid pre-preg in the F-18 class. The idea is cheap and heavy boats on a level playing field. Building a heavy boat out of pre-preg is a waste of money, as you can build a boat just as strong/stiff/heavy with vacuum or regular wet layup. F-18's are evenly supposed to have an easy to reach min. weight with plywood, so why drive costs up by using a rare material like pre-preg s-glass.
