I have some results and a short report of the wind conditions :



This is the short report I received



"the first three races were very light and shifty, race 3

was a complete lottery with 90% of the fleet finishing in a gust within 2

minutes of each other, races 4 and 5 were in constant wind 15 - 18 knots, the

raid was again 15 - 18 knots."





The following data was gethered from http://www.alyzea.com/eurocat2002/feneures.html





F18HT's were 131 and 116 and another (Bim F18HT 2000) but I don't know the sailnumber of that.



I assume that you are also interested in the brother class which is the F16 class. So I will list those too.



F16's - Spitfire by Neill Mangan and Stealth by John Pierce (The ones I know of, but there were more I think)



All boats started in the same fleet and raced the same courses.





Finishings (out of 63 seriously competing boats):
