Being interested in design, I wonder if there's anyone here who has sailed with or against Banshees much. Bruce Kirby reckons the Banshee (cut down FJ) was a nice little boat and initially it did well in one of a kind regattas against the Laser. I haven't sailed one for a million years and they aren't seen much around here. Anyone else have much experience with them?
I'm not asking about durability, racing, etc as I have no intention of buying one, i'm just interested in the way the very different hull shape affects its performance.
