I found these on Imagestation. I've seen these boats on land, but never under way. They are about 14 LOA. & carry about 1200 sq. ft. of sail. Typical crew is about six. I believe it is about the only formal sail boat race where you are allowed to finish with less people than you start with (if a race is very close near the finish in light air the crew will jump off the transom & give her a push as they go!).
Oh yes, & there is one crew member who's only job is to BAIL!
