Right.., If it is to be named "Formula 12 Class" then it should be 12' or under. Otherwise, you could simply name it the "Formula 13 Class!"
Hmmm! or would that be an unlucky number and destroy the class? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

Or, heck, name it "George" but at least name it something it represents.

BY the way, The Wave at 13' with a bowsprit and roller furling Hooter is almost as fast as the H16. Add a trapeze and two kids would have a ball on a very substantial, bullet-proof, and very buoyant craft.
