The Stars and stripes with the solid wing is probably one of the fastest course racer ever seen. It is really sad that the solid wing version is in pieces.
It would be interesting too se how it would sail against the latest orma tris, short course race in sheltered waters...

Quote on the SA forum - "Raced against them when fossett had it on a formula 40 tri-maran "running with scissors" they were a speck on the horizon after a couple of hours and we were doing low 20's."
That, of course, was the soft rig version. Agree it would be cool to see either of the S&S go up against the newer 60's. Although I'm guessing the one in Mexico may not fair so well...
