One design, still being chosen
Boats
A one design fleet only works if everyone buys the same boat. Three classes are on the table, and nothing is settled.
The classes
DragonFlite 95
The likely choice. It arrives nearly finished, fits in a back seat, and has fleets all over New England.
- Hull length
- 950 mm
International One Metre
The other contender. A development class with a long history, a thicker rulebook and a bigger bill.
- Hull length
- 1000 mm
East Coast 12 Meter
The most history on this water: the old club ran the EC12 Nationals here in 2024. Big, heavy and scale looking, off a 1962 Twelve Metre design.
- Hull length
- 1500 mm, about 59 inches
