18vs18 vs 40' I Shares

Aussie 18 skiff vs I Shares 40 cat with what looks like an F18 thrown in. Only thing missing is a Moth where the word is that its faster than either 18....hmmmm.

The 'small' cat is a Tornado, not F18. I`m curious as to whether the moth is really that quick around a course against a F18 / Tornado, word has it the moth is quick while upright.

Geez, how'd I miss that? Thanks for pointing it out..... The answer is yes.
